Antique Victorian Era Brass Twin Size Bed from Late 1800s Early 1900s
This antique brass bed is around 120-140 years old, or thereabouts. It was mine when I was a kid, and has been polished regularly for 50 years. Still has the original shine--when it's freshly polished, it looks amazing!

There is a remnant of the maker's label on the frame, but I can't tell what it says. Headboard is 60" tall; footboard is 38" tall, and the bed is 36" wide x 80" long. It will fit a regular twin mattress (36" x 75"). The side rails fit into the end pieces (see last photo). Currently on casters; I don't know how easy it would be to remove those (you may not want to).

I believe it's a cast iron core that's clad in thick brass, with some solid brass pieces; magnets will stick to some parts, but not others. Overall, it's in very good condition for its age, with only some minor scratches and a few small dings. The bed does not include a mattress, boxspring, or any bedding; it's the frame only.

This will need to be carried down one flight of stairs; you'll need to bring your own help for loading, although it can be managed by one person if you're quite strong. From a non-smoking, pet-free home. You're welcome to come by to see the bed in person, and I encourage this.

I'll be happy to answer questions or send more photos. I'm located in La Plata, Maryland, 20646. Thanks for looking, and please check out my other listings, including more vintage and antique items!
