Joints have been checked for good fit and the iron work has been shot blasted and primed prior to hand finish in Jet black with wax to preserve for another hundred years. Price includes pine wood slats (sorry not mattress) As an alternative to the wood slats we can supply mini box bases for superior mattress support and to raise the get into bed height.
