The form is also commonly called an opium bed in the antiques trade. A raised gallery encloses three sides, and pronounced scrolling feet provide a sculptural foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design depends on generous scale, restrained decoration and accomplished woodworking. Rattan introduces a lighter texture against the darker hardwood, whose deep patina has developed through generations of use. Such daybeds traditionally accommodated reclining, visits with guests and the activities of everyday Chinese domestic life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd a fitted cushion and bolsters for use as a daybed, set it at a window or in a reading area, or make the spacious platform an oversized table or display surface in a large living room. Its substantial proportions and natural materials suit rustic, Asian-inspired, contemporary and traditional settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original demountable construction remains a practical advantage: the piece separates into three sections for moving and installation, retaining its structural integrity and historic character when assembled.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FEA Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44512681492541,"sku":"YN8525","price":13800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1883\/4283\/files\/YN8525-daybed-on-white-01.jpg?v=1794415835","url":"https:\/\/feahome.com\/products\/antique-chinese-hardwood-daybed-with-rattan-platform-and-scroll-feet","provider":"FEA Home","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
