Description from the seller
Magnificent antique walnut headboard – Louis XVI style – c. 1880–1900
Superb walnut headboard in Louis XVI style with neoclassical inspiration, dating from the late 19th century or early 20th century, around 1880–1900.

It features a large central panel with superb natural walnut patterns, framed by two fluted uprights, adorned with geometric motifs and topped with splendid turned urn-shaped elements.
The carved mouldings and decorative finishes attest to the care taken in its manufacture.
