For size reference, I show it here with a13\" long Gebruder Heubach antique bisque head baby(the doll is NOT included).

Jenny Lind was a very popularopera singer in the 1850\'s. She was known as\"The Swedish Nightingale.\" When this most revered figure stated that her preferencein beds was for a turned wood spool bed, this style became all the rage, and has continued inits desirability today. And so, this little doll bed came to be, because even dolly wanted a \"Jenny Lind\" bed! It is stained in a dark walnut color. I don\'t know what type of woodit is actually made of.The bed has a simple slated woodplatform to support the mattress. The platform rests ontwisted wires that run the length of the bed. It comes withthe mattress I found it with, printed with adorable seaside scenes of children at play. The nautical theme is depictedwith children playing pirates,fishing, and sailing boats, etc.

Other than the mattress, the bed does not come with any bedding. It would be fun and easy to make linens for this charming antique plaything from old linens.To get you started,you may wish to look at some of the doll quilts that I will be listing shortly in separate sales, as seen in the lastfew pictures. For your inspiration, I showthe bed with a gorgeous antique crazy quilt that was made for a doll. (Please keep in mind that the doll and thequilts shown are not included.)
