Collection: Antique and Designer Beds & Bedrooms

Antique beds, vintage bedrooms, and bedroom furniture: originals from the 19th century to the 1970s

Introduction

Looking for an antique 19th-century walnut bed, a complete Art Nouveau bedroom set, or an Italian designer bed from the 1960s? This collection features beds, headboards, nightstands, and bedroom accessories selected from antiques, modern antiques, and 20th-century Italian design—unique, verified pieces ready to transform your bedroom into a space of character.

You'll find double and single beds, carved headboards, wrought iron beds, solid wood beds with complete frames, matching nightstands, and complete bedroom sets. Each piece is personally selected by Dario Raia for its construction quality, state of preservation, and stylistic coherence. No reproductions: only originals with a history.

How to choose the right bed

An antique or vintage bed is the piece that defines the identity of a bedroom. Nineteenth-century walnut or cherry beds—with carved headboards and footboards—are striking pieces, ideal for classic bedrooms or contrasting with contemporary interiors. Early twentieth-century wrought iron beds have a sober elegance that adapts to many styles.

Designer beds from the 1950s and 1960s—with low frames and clean lines—are perfect for those seeking a modernist aesthetic. Matching bedroom sets—bed, nightstands, and dresser—offer the stylistic coherence of a piece of furniture designed as a whole.

FAQ

Are antique beds compatible with modern mattresses?
Yes, in most cases. The measurements of antique Italian beds are often compatible with standard mattresses (160x200, 180x200). When the measurements differ, it is possible to adapt the base or order a custom mattress. The exact measurements are always indicated on the product page.

Do you sell matching complete bedrooms?
When available, yes. Complete bedrooms—bed, nightstands, chest of drawers, and wardrobe in the same style and period—are indicated on the product page. For specific matching requests, please contact us directly.

How is an antique bed shipped?
Beds are disassembled into their main components (headboard, footboard, sides, base), professionally packaged, and shipped via specialized couriers. For deliveries to Italy and Europe, we offer dedicated insured shipping and, upon request, on-site assembly.

Can I purchase just the headboard of an antique bed?
Yes, when available separately. Many antique headboards are sold as individual pieces and can be adapted to modern bed frames. Availability is indicated on the product page.
