Antique Chinese Wedding Bed
The Late Qing Dynasty antique Chinese wedding bed in red lacquered pine dates to around 1900 and it is very ornamental and ornate.
We imported this exquisite antique Chinese wedding bed to the USA in 2012…. it had previously inhabited a home schedule for demolition so it was wonderful to have the chance to give the Chinese wedding bed a new life! It was finally purchased by our customer in Greenville, SC, so it has landed in a place very different to its origins in the Zhejiang Province in Eastern China!
Antique Chinese wedding beds like this were once used by royalty, and were often called “Eight Step Beds.” It is divided into two areas, one for sleeping and the other for placing shoes and personal items as you get ready for bed.
