Checkmate! Lamps

Imagine that you were able to peek into the bedroom of a young socialite who lived in the turn of the century. This is the kind of young woman who thrived on being able to twist men around her fingers and who danced the night through until dawn at least three evening a week. These women were the ones who men wanted to be with and who women wanted to be. What do you think their bedroom would look like?

Chances are, if a woman lived back then and had a great deal of money, she likely had a bed that looked exactly like the Cherie Bed in her bedroom. This beautiful metal bed is unique and extremely ornate. It features metal castings that are very detailed along with beautiful scrollwork. Every kind of curve you could think of is found in this bed, including a unique swoop at the bottom of the footboard that curves upwards into a whole new curve. The posts are solid and sturdy and have tops that look very much like a chess piece. Finished in a satin beige, this bedroom furniture would work well matching almost any décor.

Pair this bed with some beautiful and silky linens and plenty of pillows and you may very well be looking at what the bed of a fluttering socialite looked like many years ago. Created by Hillsdale Furniture, this bed is designed to last for a number of generations and far beyond.
