Want to have a romantic look in your bedroom? Go for a canopy bed. This is the rage today. For youngsters and adults, canopy bed epitomizes happy thoughts and rosy romantic dreams. Canopy beds make the bedroom a peaceful and private realm of tranquillity and tender moments. For youngsters, canopy beds are private fortresses to which they retire to dream of romance and adventures.
What is a campy bed? Basically a simple four-poster bed, but with lavishly ornamental or stunningly sheer fabrics draped over the four posters with a tent like canopy made over the bed. Today there are novel and innovatively shaped canopy beds which look like period-time movie sets. The canopy beds are meant for more privacy, warmth and protection from any insects etc.
Victorian-era canopy beds were huge four-posters almost the size of a small-size bedroom with huge swaths of sheer draperies hanging around like wisps of clouds. Mostly made of metal frame with exquisite and intricate scroll work to decorate the head and foot of the bed, canopy beds were elaborate furniture. Formerly, there used to be upper panels called testers, but not anymore.
Today canopy beds are either modishly minimalistic or contemporary in style. Neat and simple frames, with just some scroll work or patterns and simple looking metal or wooden posters complete a canopy bed construction today. They are either fully metal, wood or a combination of both; just the right mixture of grandeur and elegance but with simple, clean-cut designs and finish.
Youngsters – both boys and girls – just love the idea of a canopy bed. Girls just love the idea of princess like sleeping in a beautifully done pink canopy bed, all roses, laces and pretty flowers with Barbie-doll like accessories – having dreams of romance and fairy tale endings. Boys love the theme of sports, camping and military style canopy beds having adventures and thrills through their waking hours to continue in their dreams. Here are some beautiful canopy beds from Charles P. Rogers. Look at the beautiful hand-forged canopy beds with elegantly done scroll work and decorative finials. How lovely is the one with fruit-like finials in French gold and antique brass finish? Don’t you think you would enjoy sleeping in the queen size four-poster with moon motifs and solid brass castings? All are of excellent quality and superb finish.
