Expertly hand crafted in France about 1900, a classical three piece Empire bedroom set includes a full size bed, mirrored armoire and marble top nightstand.
Mahogany with flame burl panels, the original finish is very well preserved and has been waxed and polished, so only an occasional wipe with a soft dry cloth is needed to maintain its warm antique patina. There are minor mars and shrinkage separations from age, see photos.
Bronze mounts and pineapple finials are original on this historic European furniture.
The bed includes a pallet or "bunky board" and fits a standard full or double size mattress that is 12" thick in photos, so no spring unit is needed. Size is 59" wide, 80" long, the headboard is 61" tall and the footboard is 31" high.
The armoire has original shaped and beveled mirror doors with a working lock. Inside are two shelves, there are wood supports to add more shelves if desired. This graceful arched wardrobe can be disassembled for moving. Interior woods are oak and curly or birdseye maple, depth inside is 16 1/2." The lower drawer lock does not work, the key can be used as a handle only. Dimensions are 52" wide at the crown, 20" deep and 7' 7 1/2" tall.
Marble on the top of the nightstand has been polished and sealed to resist stains. The lower compartment is marble lined, size is 16" square and 33" tall.
