A Tiger Maple Daybed, New England, c.1830

Originally, this was a much wider bed,
a sleigh bed that was shrunken down to day
bed size
for use as a commodious sofa and/or day bed.
The four
supporting side members are all solid tiger
mahogany
of the finest color. The rails holding the
two sides
of the bed are tiger maple and later,
evidenced by
its lighter color. The panels within each
end are
bird’s eye maple. This daybed is a tour de
force of
the finest solid tiger maple and weighs a
ton. Rarely
if ever does one find Tiger Maple of this
category.
Please view all the images; it’s a true
rarity. We have had a firm mattress, cushions, and bolsters made for
this piece.
