Canopy bed made from without with curtains from sits, Canopy bed made from without, rigged with curtains from sits painted with a wavy floral vines pattern on a wooden frame, consists of four pillars, from below square of section, above the mattress around, between which partitions of the mattress tray are attached. The rear bulkhead slightly raised. The bottom of the mattress tray consists of two wooden sleepers. A piece of sits is stretched between the two back posts as a back wall, which is folded backwards around the posts. A rectangular frame of four slats rests on the uprights, around which is stretched as a canopy, also from the inside completely around the slats upwards and backwards. Holes were drilled through the frame and the fabric, three on each side through which three sets of cords with tassels are inserted, which hold up the curtains. At the four corners, four vase-shaped corner ornaments are placed on iron pins, consisting of twisted wooden spools and convex discs, covered with chinks and a narrow gallery arranged in four vertical ridges, closed on top by a downward-curving, multicolored brush. The bed is hung with four curtains from sits, trimmed around with galon, from below with frills in color matching the sits. Two curtains are slightly wider than the other two. They are tightly stitched to the sky frame, and are obliquely absorbed by the cords and tassels on the sides and foot. The curtains are now mounted in such a way (this condition is so visible on all old photos) that they run from the middle of one side to the middle of the next side and thus cover the corner post. The curtains slightly overlap at feet and headboard. In addition, from the center of the side wall, around the foot end to the center of the other side wall, a fall is made of, trimmed on three sides with galon, turned back at the bottom and received by the cords and tassels at the center back and at the two corners at the height of the back posts., anonymous, c. 1676, cotton
