This king-sized canopy bed, nearly 8 feet tall, is a paragon of Paul Evans’ Argente series and is the only one of its kind. It uniquely showcases the Argente motif with the bed’s structure perfectly displaying the vertical and horizontal welded waves of polished and matte black aluminum. A concealed inner rail accommodates a curtain; a recessed ledge on top was designed to support a fabric canopy or mirrored ceiling to the bed.
