Description
A Jacobean style oak tester bed
incorporating antique and later elements
height 90in (229cm); width 72in (183cm); depth 92in (234cm)
Provenance:
The collection of Joe and Madalyn Farley, London.
Property from the Collection of Craig Wright.
Footnote:
The London prop house of Farley was opened in 1962 by Joe, an artist and picture framer, and Madalyn Farley. After a visit by a set decorator to his frame shop, Joe saw the opportunity of renting art and antiques for film and television productions. The business started small, with mostly pieces from his own home being hired out to dress sets, but over time continued to grow.
The bed offered here can be seen films including Tom Jones, with Albert Finney, Mary queen of Scots, Lady Jane and others.
