A striking “light” Art Deco-influenced bedroom suite that celebrates the elegance of streamlined design with softly rounded corners, contrasting timber tones, and timeless proportions.
Crafted in a combination of maple and walnut, the lighter maple are beautifully framed by richly toned darker wood, creating a warm and sophisticated contrast that complements both contemporary and classic interiors.
The king size bed features an impressive gently curved headboard and matching footboard with rounded waterfall corners, giving the piece a sculptural presence while maintaining the curved lines synonymous with the Art Deco period. It has been fitted with a newly made, integrated king size base, ready to accommodate your mattress and provide years of comfortable use.
Completing the suite is a matching pair of bedside pedestals, each standing on elegant tapered legs. The pedestals offer practical storage with a drawer above a drop-down cabinet, retaining their original Art Deco styling while providing bedside storage. New glass tops have been fitted to protect the restored timber surfaces without detracting from the design. Though the pedestals are not large in scale, they echo the design lines and a great fit to complement and complete this suite.
This is a rare opportunity to own a cohesive bedroom suite that combines authentic vintage character with thoughtful restoration, making it equally suited to a heritage home or a modern interior seeking warmth and individuality.
Condition:
The timber has been fully restored and sealed, highlighting the rich contrast between the woods. A newly made fitted king size base has been installed (not by us, but well executed), and the matching bedside pedestals are protected with new glass tops. The suite presents in very good restored vintage condition, with only the lightest age related character consistent with its vintage origin.

Note/Disclaimer:
Our images form part of the item description. While we make every effort to restore our furniture to its original state, most pieces date from the 1950s to the late 1970s. As a result, and despite restoration, signs of their vintage nature and previous life may still be visible. Light traces of restoration may remain visible, consistent with authentic vintage furniture. In some cases, minor adjustments may also have been made during the restoration process to ensure the piece remains functional and usable. We will point out any notable aspects where possible. We encourage in-store viewing or careful review of photographs before purchase.
Transport & Handling Note:
All items are carefully wrapped and prepared for transport by us (not the courier) to ensure safe handling. Once items leave our premises, we cannot take responsibility for their treatment by third-party transporters. We strongly recommend arranging goods-in-transit insurance for comprehensive protection.
Due to the fragility of glass, we do not recommend shipping glass items outside of Gauteng.

As with many Mid-Century pieces, this item features a thoughtful combination of solid wood and high-quality wood veneer. Veneer has a long and respected tradition in furniture making, valued for both its aesthetic and structural benefits. When crafted with skill and applied in substantial thickness, vintage veneer proves highly durable, allowing for careful restoration, including retouching, sanding, and refinishing without compromising the integrity of the piece.
