This super king piece draws its authority from the most theatrical moment in French Rococo: the royal chambre de parade, where the bed was not merely furniture but the centerpiece of an entire ceremonial room. The headboard rises to 170 cm — a sweeping, shaped silhouette crowned by a hand-carved acanthus-and-shell crest in burnished gold-leaf, flanked by generous C-scroll volutes that curl outward with the confidence of a period at ease with its own opulence. The duck-egg blue of the upholstery — a colour the 18th century called bleu céleste — sets the gilded frame into sharp, composed relief.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe frame is built from solid beech, giving the carving medium both structural integrity and the close grain needed for the fluid, high-relief scrollwork that defines this piece. Every carved element — the shell crest, the flanking acanthus scrolls, the central shell medallion on the footboard — has been worked by hand before receiving a layered antiqued gold finish that catches light differently at every angle, never flat, never uniform. The upholstery panels on both headboard and footboard are worked in a diamond-quilted cotton in a serene duck-egg blue, a quiet field that allows the gilded frame to do its full work. The bed rests on a timber slat system, accepting a standard 200×200 cm mattress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWidth: 200 cm \/ Length: 200 cm \/ Height: 170 cm\u003cbr\u003eMattress size: 200×200 cm (Super King) | Mattress support: Slat system | Frame finish: Antiqued gold-leaf | Upholstery colour: Duck-egg blue | Fabric weave: Diamond-quilted cotton | Assembly: Full assembly required\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandcrafted in Egypt\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bed is made entirely by hand in Egypt by Brass \u0026amp; Wood artisans trained in the European classical tradition. The carving, gilding, upholstery, and finishing are each the work of dedicated craftspeople — not a production line.
