Italian Renaissance Revival carved walnut bed, early 20th c., elaborate crest with oval cartouche and foliate scrollwork, above frieze with crown motif and crossed foliate branches, flanked by protruding half figures, joining footboard with bulbous turned posts faced with lion masks, exterior: approx 71.5"h, 87"l, 61.5"w, interior: approx 79.25"l, 52.5"w

03.23.26: I note that the bed stands sturdy, the decoration is dense and finely carved, the carvings are overall well-preserved, having a few typical minor chips and small losses commensurate with age and use, I observe light tonal variation of the finish associated with minor fading, and some scattered minor splits that appear stable and structurally secure, also having sparse typical minor surface wear such as small nicks, spotting, and light abrasions
