French Wrought Iron Garden Daybed

An exceptionally charming 19th-century French wrought iron garden daybed.

Featuring an elegantly curved, ergonomic silhouette, the piece is defined by its intricate scrollwork frame, and twisted iron detailing. The bed base is constructed from flexible iron straps supported by tension springs to offer comfortable suspension. 

The ironwork exhibits a wonderful, naturally aged rust patina accrued over decades, giving it immense character.

It comes complete with a bespoke tufted, soft-hued striped fabric cushion in muted tones of terracotta, gold, and cream. Handed stuffed with carded white lambswool, to add comfort and usability to a wonderful, interesting antique sun lounger.

Condition: Offered in strong, structurally sound antique condition. The iron frame retains a natural rust patina consistent with age and outdoor exposure.

Measurements: Length 189cm x Height 56cm x Width 64cm (approx.)

Wool has long been accepted as an environmentally positive fibre choice with a number of benefits, such as being 100% natural, renewable, biodegradable and recyclable. 

We are increasingly aware of our climate impact and are putting this at the heart of our approach, which affects the choice of materials we use to make our bespoke textile cushions. 

From the raw material stage on a farm to driving the adoption of cleaner wool processes and technologies, wool offers the opportunity to create high quality, durable, comfortable and beautiful products that have been created with the land and biodiversity in mind.

As a natural fibre, wool does not shed microplastics which can negatively affect ocean health. Scientific studies show that wool is biodegradable in both land and marine environments.

Not to mention that it is thermo-regulating, is naturally fire-retardant, hypoallergenic, antibacterial, easy to care for, and can be repaired and enjoyed for years and years.
