Marco Bed (East King)

A canopy with no canopy. The frame is the point.

The Marco Bed, in East King, is by Oly. Its hand-hammered iron frame carries a canopy and tapering posts, with an upholstered headboard and a Silvery Moon finish. Four-poster beds once hung curtains for warmth and privacy, and this one keeps the outline without the fabric. The thin rails have a mottled, hammered surface, with a small ball at each corner. The headboard is a pale padded panel framed in the same iron. Ninety-one and a half inches high, 80 long and 83.5 deep.

Drapes remain a matter of personal conscience.
