Louis XV Rococo Revival Bedroom Set — Shell-Carved Gilt Frame with Ivory Damask Upholstery

Design & Inspiration

Step into the bedroom and what greets you is not a collection of furniture but a unified composition — the arching gilt headboard at the far wall, its shell cartouche rising above ivory damask, flanked by dark walnut nightstands whose marble tops glow against the deep-lacquered case. This is the vocabulary of the Louis XV Rococo Revival: all movement, all warmth, all deliberate asymmetry resolved into perfect visual balance. The set draws from the mid-18th-century French salon tradition, faithfully reproduced for the modern bedroom that deserves a focal point worthy of the room.

Materials & Craftsmanship

Each piece in this five-part set is built from solid Romanian pine (under 10% humidity), hand-carved and finished in a deep chocolate lacquer with antique gold gilding applied by hand to every carved edge, molding, and cabriole leg. The bed's headboard and footboard are upholstered in ivory damask fabric with piped seams that trace the sinuous Rococo silhouette precisely. The nightstands carry a genuine marble top over two drawers fronted by brass ring pulls and framed with acanthus leaf corner mounts in antique gold. The dressing table spans a generous surface beneath a cream marble top, with seven drawers organized around a central knee-hole arch — the whole crowned by a free-standing gilt mirror whose serpentine frame is topped with a bold shell crest. The bedroom bench completes the set: six turned legs joined by a scrolling S-curve stretcher, upholstered in ivory ribbed fabric to echo the bed's palette.

Dimensions & Details

This listing covers the complete five-piece set. Dimensions are provided per piece at point of order confirmation. Bed frame is configured for a King 180×200 cm mattress with a slat support system. The set includes: King Bed, 2 Nightstands, Dressing Table with Mirror, and Bedroom Bench. Weight approximately 100 kg total. Full assembly required; professional installation recommended.

Handcrafted in Egypt

Every piece in this collection is made by hand in Egypt by craftsmen trained in classical European joinery and gilding traditions. The antique gold finish is applied by hand in multiple layers, burnished at the crests and carved reliefs to catch light the way a period piece would. Brass & Wood offers full customization of fabric color, wood finish, and brass tone — making each set a one-of-a-kind commission rather than a catalogue purchase.
