Restoration, Custom Finishes & Conversions
Our prices range from $900 to $8500
All of our antique frames are American iron beds produced between the late 1800's and early 1900's. Each frame remains in our inventory unrestored. Once purchased, we restore and refinish the frame to suit your own personal needs and tastes. The largest antique iron bed produced in American was a full/double. Our flawless conversion process transforms any of the original doubles into the modern queen or king size. We can even add a canopy! |

Buying Your First Antique Iron Bed...
"Wage warfare against wooden beds and you wage it against one of the greatest disease-breeders of the present day. No dust nor germs nor vermin can find lodgement in an iron bed."
So was the cry heard from the metal bed makers in the late 1800's. Instead of celebrating their product's elegant, sensual designs, warm colors and impressive craftsmanship, early ads for iron beds attacked the wooden competition as being unsanitary and likely to make you sick. While there was a modicum of truth that certain insects might be more attracted to sleeping with you in a wood bed, the contest was really about beauty not bugs.
Should centuries-old advertising or sanitation problems play a part in the purchase of your antique iron bed? Probably not. But there are a few important details you do need to consider.
