What are four poster beds and what are the benefits of having one for your child
A Four Poster bed is a type of bed with a headboard that extends higher than the middle portion of the bed frame. This gives the bed the appearance of a tall canopy at the top of the bed. These types of beds originated in India but later spread to England and France. The beds have four posts or corner posts that rise above the bed. The posts support a canopy or fabric that hangs over the bed.
Four Poster beds date back to the 12th and 13th centuries and were used commonly in cottages and castles. They became popular in Europe from the 14th century onward.
Four Poster beds are perfect for children who have grown out of a toddler bed for older children, and for young adults for dorm rooms.
