Why You’ll Love It
Few pieces capture the romance and theatrical elegance of 18th-century French interiors quite like a Lit à la Polonaise bed, such as this piece by renowned artisan June Clinkscales, dated 2007. It bed showcases the distinctive canopy design beloved during the Rococo period, where a dramatic crown-like dome floats above the bed. The hand-crafted wooden frame features graceful carvings finished in a softly distressed white paint. The magnificent canopy is dressed in delicate blue-and-white toile fabric and edged with cream-and-gold cording. Tiny hand-tied tassels accent the front swags. Cascading from the canopy, sumptuous cream raw silk draperies have been meticulously pleated and arranged to sweep elegantly around the bed before pooling naturally on the floor, creating remarkable realism..
The luxurious bedding continues the French toile theme with coordinating mattress coverings, matching bolster pillows, and a collection of custom accent pillows. Particularly striking is the deep blue accent pillow adorned with crisp silk ribbon bows.
Perfect for a French Rococo château, Marie Antoinette-inspired bedroom, aristocratic manor house, romantic boudoir or a luxury dollhouse suite.
