Love those beautiful Italian iron beds?

I am not affiliated with this company in any way, shape or form. I came across this website that imports hand made iron beds from Italy and I think they're stunning. You will find no pricing information but I can tell you that the beds run between $7000-$9000. USD...not cheap but I can dream!

You can get something similar from here:

And costs nothing like that.

If you want to buy a similar style bed, you can take a look at the Charles P. Rodgers canopy beds on their website; they cost a whole lot less!

Not quite the same type of selection but saw a couple that I liked. Do you know the prices?

For example one called Coral in 160 cm costs 640 euros. (That is six hundred, not six thousand).

They are sturdy. I bought one of their beds over 20 years ago and I still sleep in it. They used to look more like those Italian ones but looks like they have changed their collection into more simple lines.
