This bed, originally from New England or New York , is a later style Sheraton Bed. A dramatic lamb's tongue leads from the square into the turning with a swag and drape carved urn above it. The long bulbous vase has been shortened and carved in an ornate leaf motif. The vase has a long curved tapered column above it with the classic leaf motif above it. The post is particularly heavy in section, a forerunner of the Empire style.
