The Theodore Alexander Markos Wooden Bed is a lesson in Art Deco restraint. There is no upholstery and no ornament to distract from the headboard, a broad plane of khaya swirl whose rippling figure is the decoration. The frame stands on stout tapered legs with Hampton Brass caps and decorative ferrules. This wooden headboard bed suits homeowners who prefer the warmth of figured wood to fabric.
Design & Craftsmanship
Markos is part of Marlborough by Alexa Hampton, the Theodore Alexander collection handcrafted from khaya veneer and accented in brass. Every size can be finished in Cambridge or in Geo Coast, which TA catalogues as Marlborough Geo Coast (VCF902). The bed accepts adjustable mattress frames, and TA recommends a 6-inch box spring. The Queen suits a Coconut Grove guest room; the King and California King fill a Coral Gables primary suite. The Theodore Alexander Markos Wooden Bed pairs with the collection's Massie nightstands, Faulkner dresser and Lee chest for a coordinated bedroom.
