Fantastic two piece Renaissance Revival Victorian bedroom suite - bed has queen size width! We attribute this suite to Allen & Bros, Philadelphia. The top crests incorporate raised shaped burled panels, carved moldings, full columns and exceptionally carved top and side finials.
The bed has a highly figured burled recessed panel in both the headboard and footboard. The later also has a burled “rolling pin” at the top. The siderails have high returns that go into the headboard. We even have the original slats for the bed. The bed is 60″W (slightly narrower at each end) and 77.5″L between the rails.

A custom box spring could be ordered or the rails could be lengthened to accommodate a full queen size boxspring. The dresser has an original beveled glass mirror with the slight diamond dusting at the bottom - a charming feature of the old mirrors!

It has an original reddish brown marble top, burled drawer fronts and cast brass pulls. Both the bed and dresser have the rich thick original finish, black highlights and sharp carved design associated with the Allen & Bros firm. It is very unusual to find a Victorian bed of this width.
