Stunning Art Deco Fluted Makore (African Cherry Mahogany) Queen size Bed (5 ft)
A stunning Queen size Art Deco Bed in figured Makore (African Cherry mahogany) Makore was sometimes used when making high end furniture. The headboard and footboard are both fluted and ebonised to their tops. The footboard is raised on a stunning stepped base which is figured and bookpaged Makore with stunning, swirling grain set above an accent ebonised further step to this plinth. Overall this stunning Queen size bed just oozes curves and vibrancy to the grain. Each fluted section is veneered with individual selected veneer with really interesting grain so that each of the flutes collectively create something stunning. This bed has been traditionally re French polished by hand with many hours of love and attention taken to ensure the grain really pops on this wonderful Art Deco 1930s bed. A substantial and impressive bed with its original vono supports and iron rails onto which fits a custom made pine slatted base.
Having passed through our in house workshops this comes to you in excellent condition, ready for your mattress (not provided).
A really wonderful and rare bed.

“This item was stunning on 1st Dibs, beautiful beyond words when I received it! Process for purchase was simple & straightforward. There was a question at one point re delivery, and I received a quick response & accurate information. The packaging of this special item was phenomenal - every care was taken to ensure a safe delivery. If I could give a 10 star review, I would! Five star really doesn’t reflect the care and attention to this order. Just awesome - thank you, Elaine!

“I recently completed 3 separate purchases, each piece was part of a matching bedroom set. Elaine was a pure joy to work with. The condition descriptions were accurate, her response time to messages was incredibly timely, her prices were very fair, and the packaging for shipment was thorough and of the highest quality. There were no surprises when everything arrived - just as described. There should not be any hesitation when considering purchasing from this seller!”
