Spool Jenny Lind Walnut Bed 3/4 & Marble Top Dresser/Mirror..Very Few This Nice!
N ot really sure when this was made.lady who owned it said she knew it was in the family in early 1920's.it is absolutely beautiful and in excellent condition.the only"call" on the whole suite is the top of the drawer on the dresser on the left side has got a hairline crack. Other than that I couldn't find anything else worthy of mentioning.the bed is very stout.rails fit perfectly.only one key but it locks every drawer but one.probably a little WD40 would correct that.marble is in excellent shape.quiet sure it is not the original mirror but it is a very nice mirror.the bed is a 3/4 size even though a regular full size mattress has been used on it for the last 40 years.it was just a little wide for the boxsprings but they managed.Going to include the 3/4 box springs as it is very heavy and well made.nothing at all wrong ... morewith it.it is full of coil springs and really a lot better than the box springs you find today.all you would really need is a 3/4 mattress unless you should decide to just put a full size on it like the previous owner did.anyway, that is about all I know to tell you even though I know I am leaving something out.Now the main thing I want to get across to you lookers is that I want to sell it.not going to put it on here at some silly price and hope you will make a high offer.I am going to list both pieces at what I have seen others ask for just one of these pieces alone.Can't ship, so should you decide to buy, please be aware that you have got to come to good old west Tennessee in Jackson.about half way between memphis and Nashville.It is in good hands and safe and sound until you come or send for it.Will be glad to offer loading help should one person come alone.Any questions call Dicky at 731-697-9043.God Bless America again.Please.

Antique Walnut Jenny Lind 3/4 Sz Spool Bed w/ Box Springs - Very Good Condition
This was purchased prior to 1930 by my grandmother. It is a Jenny Lind style 3/4 spool bed in solid walnut in excellent condition. I did not like the dark finish and had it stripped to the natural finish. It comes with the original metal box springs and the mattress. Full-sized sheets work well. The mattress was unfortunately damaged by water from when it was in my condo storage unit. It was a very small amount of water. But it damaged one of the short ends of the mattress. The damage looks to be possibly from rust from the frame inside that material. That said, I want to keep it wrapped in the plastic so I don't want to check further. Mattress companies can find 3/4 mattresses if this one doesn't meet your needs. I dismantled the bed a few years ago and all of the pieces(but the box springs) And the mattress, have been wrapped in ... moreplastic from the moving company since then. I do not want to remove the plastic, so I did not put the bed back together for an assembled picture. The entire bed consists of a head board and foot board 38" high by 53.5" wide by 2.5" deep; side rails 72.5" long; nine slats to place under the metal box springs. The box springs could likely be placed on the rails without the slats, but the slats add stability and my family has always used them. Finally, the mattress is included.

ANTIQUE Early 1900's JENNY LIND SPOOL ROUNDED SHOULDER Green WOOD BED FRAME
I have an antique spool bed(named for its resemblance to sewing spools) a.k.a. Jenny Lind bed. Colonial Furniture The favorite tool of colonial woodworkers across America was the lathe. In England. 16th century woodworkers left hardly an inch undecorated on furniture pieces and while their American counterparts were more modest, they were still enthusiastic about the technique and turned wood became emblematic of colonial style. Although wood turning had been practiced by the Romans, it was virtually unknown in Medieval Europe and had only been newly rediscovered by those 16th century woodworkers– which explains their ardor for the new style! Spool-turned furniture in 19th century America After years of languishing in attics. Spool-turned furniture came back in fashion in about 1840 as part of the colonial revival. Only this time, it had ... morea little help from technology. Before 1820, all wood turning was done on a lathe that was operated by a foot treadle– the process was slow and arduous. The new 19th century American-invented power-driven lathe used steam power– the craftsman worked at guiding his cutting chisels. This made it much easier for the colonial look to be mass produced. Spool-Turned Beds Named for Jenny Lind OK– so why are spool-turned beds called Jenny Lind beds? Celebrity infatuation is not a new phenomenon and the“it” girl of 1850 was Jenny Lind. Jenny Lind was a Swedish singer who made her debut in America in 1851 for a P.T. Barnum production. At the time. Lind was widely popular in Europe and Barnum created a 61-stop tour all across the U.S. for her before ever even hearing her music! Ever the genius promoter, Barnum helped manufactured a Jenny Lind craze– there were Jenny Lind hats, gloves, pianos– even Jenny Lind tobacco– and of course, furniture. The Jenny Lind bed was supposedly the type of spool-turned bed that the singer slept in throughout her tour. A true Jenny Lind bed has square solid corners on the headboard. 1850s– spool-turned furniture was made with rounded corners because
