The bed is walnut with burled insets. The bed is 80" long and 58" wide. Headboard is 96" high and foot board is 39". The side rails are 9 inches wide and taper up at head and footboard.
I bought the bed 30 years ago from an individual in Illinois who was clearing out a relatives home. Don't know its history
Dear Betty,
Thank you for your request. The apprised object is a bed with the elaborate decor. The bed is made in nut wood or walnut and has the measurements of 80" long and 58" wide. The headboard is 96" high and footboard is 39". This piece was made in the late 19th century. The market situation for such pieces is not easy but there are still collectors for such large sized objects.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 700 to 1500 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With best regards,
Georg
