Antique French Louis XV Double Half-corbeille Bed
Stunning Louis XV-style upholstered "half-basket" bed | Pale blue and carved walnut
We are offering for sale an absolutely magnificent Louis XV-style bed, featuring an enveloping footboard with elegant curves. It is the ideal piece to bring a touch of classic French romance and refined elegance to a master bedroom or a prestigious guest suite.
Item Details
Style: Classic Louis XV / French Provincial.
Design: “Corbeille” style, characterized by the rounded, enveloping shape of the footboard.
Upholstery: High-quality pale blue (or blue-gray) fabric with a subtle texture. The upholstery covers both the generous headboard and the distinctive curved footboard, all enhanced by a delicate matching finish.
Frame and Woodwork: Solid wood frame with a warm natural walnut finish. It features superb hand-carved floral and rocaille motifs on the tops of the headboard and footboard, all resting on elegant, curved (“cabriole”) carved legs.
Condition: Good period condition. The frame is perfectly sturdy, and the carved details remain sharp and precise. The pale blue upholstery shows some slight signs of wear; the padding is thick and comfortable.
