Condition:
This bed looks to have been reconstructed using some old panelling, but is predominantly 20th century, overall of a rich polished dark blackish brown tone, frame is solid but some attention to the join bolts is required. The bed is relatively straight forward to dismantle and re-assemble. Once assembled the bed is pretty stable and study with only a small amount of movement / wobble across the finished frame whivh would be greatly reduced once backed to a wall.
