Modeled on a 19th-century French original, the Theodore Alexander Brooksby Bed is a bed for a room that wants some history. Its arched headboard is made up of three crossbanded panels set between bound reeded columns, and the whole bed is veneered in cerejeira, a warm, figured hardwood that gives the surface a soft glow. Offered in Queen and King, it suits a traditional primary bedroom or a formal guest suite.
Design & Craftsmanship
The construction pairs khaya wood with cerejeira veneer, crossbanded so the grain frames each panel like a border, and the Brooksby finish (VCF635) is applied with light distressing that softens the edges. The carved columns on either side of the headboard are reeded and bound, a classical motif that repeats in the turned tapering legs, while the low panelled footboard keeps the view across the room open. Matching pieces exist in the Brooksby collection for a fully coordinated room. In a Coral Gables Mediterranean home or a Pinecrest estate bedroom, the Theodore Alexander Brooksby Bed sits naturally beside antiques, and a 4" box spring is recommended.
