Custom Simple Cannonball Vase High-Low Bed | Hand Carved Beds
The Simple Cannonball Vase High-Low Bed is an elegant study in contrast and restrained architectural scaling. By pairing towering headboard posts with abbreviated footboard posts, and integrating a delicate “vase” turning below a clean spherical finial, this custom carved bed frame provides the dramatic impact of a tall bed without closing off the sightlines of the room. As a premier custom furniture maker, Liberty Carvings crafts these sophisticated hand carved beds exclusively to order for interior designers and private clients.
The Mastery of the Asymmetrical Profile and Vase Turning
The defining architectural feature of this bed is the brilliant integration of the elongated, sweeping “vase” turning into the asymmetrical “High-Low” post structure. Beneath the iconic, unadorned spherical cannonball finial, our master artisans carve a smooth, elegant taper that swells gently in the center. This neoclassical element is executed beautifully on the towering headboard posts, drawing the eye upward.
The footboard posts mirror these vase turnings perfectly but are scaled down to rest just above the mattress height, ensuring an unobstructed view across the bedroom. Because we do not rely on automated machine replication, these turnings possess a vital, organic warmth that is the hallmark of true heirloom custom furniture.
Premium Hardwoods and Uncompromising Joinery
A bed of this structural complexity demands the finest materials. We construct the Simple Cannonball Vase High-Low Bed using premium, kiln-dried solid hardwoods such as mahogany, cherry, or maple. The heavy posts are secured to the thick blanket rails and gracefully arched headboard using traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery, ensuring the frame will never sway or creak. Every surface is then hand-finished to a spectacular luster, perfectly tailored to your interior design scheme.
A Custom Commission for the Design Trade
Because our studio operates on a quote-first, made-to-order basis, you are not bound by standard factory dimensions. We collaborate directly with architects and the design trade to fine-tune the scale. Whether you require a massive California King for a grand master suite or need to adjust the specific height of the “tall” posts to clear a unique ceiling, our artisans accommodate your exact specifications.
