This rosewood bed would have been made during the reign of Napoleon III when dark exotic woods were the height of fashion. Rosewood was, as it still is, an expensive wood. Consequently the best craftsmen worked with it. French furniture from the mid 19th century made from rosewood is usually of excellent quality. This bed has lovely proportions it is stocky and solid as a rock. It is a lovely colour and is in very good, original condition.
