In the Victorian Era, daybeds were commonly used as a place for women to rest during the middle of the day. Daybeds, which is a cross between a chaise lounger, bed, and sofa, allows the guest to rest comfortably yet still attain it’s aesthetic appeal. Daybeds are commonly found in rooms called “fainting rooms”.
Daybeds Furniture
As you might have guessed, a fainting room was a room that women could rest in when they felt faint. During the Victorian period, the “hourglass” shape was a distinction that most women sought after. To attain a hourglass figure, women would have to wear a corset that tightened the mid-torso to the point where the rib cage and internal organs were pressured. This resulted in women fainting from suffering for long periods of time in a corset.
Now, daybeds are used in many homes that need practical living space with the spacial capacity function. Daybed are sold in roughly four pieces, headboard, two side rails, and the link spring. Optionally, the pop up trundle is used to hold an extra twin size mattress.
Our favorite daybed is the Surrey Honey Pine Finish Solid Wood Daybed because of the sleigh bed design. This particular daybed is made from solid wood and has a large space underneath the bed that can be used for storage or the pop up trundle.
