We sell one-of-kind
Antiques. An
Antique by definition is a piece of furniture, decorative object or work of
art produced in a former period, belonging to the past, not modern, dating
from a period long ago, in the tradition or style of an earlier period.
We Specialize in restoring Four-Poster
Rope Beds. Rope beds were not beds made
of rope. They were wooden beds that were strung with rope to support
the mattressess. The ropes were woven in and out of holes that were
drilled in all four rails of the bed frame in an open basket weave design.
They were put on as tightly as possible when newly roped. But they
tended to stretch and allow the mattress to sag after use. Periodic
tightening with a rope-key was necessary.
This is what we specialize in,
restoring and
refinishing
these types of beds. All our beds are genuine beds of their period and
we restore them to standard sizes, twin, full, queen, and king. We
have over 250 beds in stock allowing our customers to choose the style, size
and color of their antique bed.
We purchase our beds from all across New England.
We adapt the old styles to fit modern size bedding and mattressess.
They are meticulously and painstakingly restored and refinished to
their former glory while keeping originality, appearance and quality in
mind.
Our Beds are available in a variety of sizes and woods. They are available
with intricate designs from four poster beds to canopy beds, to heavily
carved beds to simple cannon ball beds.
We have a collection of Furniture on display in our showroom, but please
contact us before traveling so that we can make sure the piece you are
interested is still available.
