Amish Heritage Captain Sleigh Bed, Full (Double) Size - SKU#0050-F
The Sleigh Bed is descriptively named after its gracefully scrolled head- and footboards which bequeath the bed the overall form of a sleigh. This heavy and sturdy bed style seems to be rooted as far back as the 15th Century, although Colonial-style sleigh beds as we know them today became broadly popular in America following the French Empire style of the early 1800s.
This heirloom quality Amish Heritage Captain Sleigh Bed features a relatively high headboard and relatively low footboard and a simpler 2 panel design than the more sophisticated 4 panel Amish Heritage Colonial Sleigh Bed. By using 100% premium American hardwood components combined with modern glues and a range of quality finishes (see thumbnails above) it actually surpasses the beauty and durability of the original furniture masterpiece that it is modeled upon.
This beautiful bed is constructed using mortise-and-tenon joints as well as bed-bolts for ultimate strength, stability, and durability. Add a quality mattress and, sitting or reclining, your comfort is ensured in this simply elegant design that has remained popular for hundreds of years. It is available in twin, full, queen, king, or California king sizes.
