Calais Iron Bed

The Calais is typical of simple nineteenth century cast iron bedstead design and represents a true successor to beds of that era when functionality was often the primary consideration.

But why is it that some of the simplest designs from those times are the most elegant? Maybe it is simply that the purity and honesty of style imparted a certain restrained character that had a quiet integrity not found with those more ornate and dramatic relatives.

And so it is with the Calais as it exhibits a restrained style with simple lines and lovely casting details to impart a charmingly captivating quality.

And these very characteristics make it an obvious choice to present as a single bedstead size option.

Perfect for the guest room or as an enchanting children bed within any decorative theme.
