| Hi all, I just posted this on the furniture forum thinking this bed was probably not antique-- but in case it is-- can anyone identify it? What style would you call it?
Thanks so much! The following was my orig. post on the furniture forum: Does anyone know what to call this type of bed frame? The headboard and footboard are shown. I don't think it's necessarily antique (although the casters could have been added later), but it's not new. What style might it be? Any info appreciated greatly. Thanks for your help! :) |

| You are awesome. Thanks! |

| I was thinking it looked like my chairs! That style was popular in the '40s for chairs. Very cool as a bed! |

| Thank you both, mongrel and fori. These are from an antique store and are mahogany. I have tried to find similar -- and see the chairs, but not any beds. Has anyone out there seen this style as a bed? Thanks so much! |

| That looks a lot like my ex-MIL's old bed style, from the 1940s or 1950s. Vintage and very pretty. |
