Offered today is this classic Empire full-size sleigh bed, in striking flame mahogany and dating from the 1850s. This piece was recently purchased out of a Maine home known for some outstanding Empire-era furniture — and this bed is no exception.
It retains its original finish, and the grain on the panels is exceptional. While there are no bed slats included, we can make a set for you—just let us at the time of sale that you want some.
