Originally, a canopy was an emblem of social station. In Byzantine and Medieval times, only the most privileged had full canopies on their beds. During the Renaissance, canopies were used less exclusively. Canopy beds became popular in the American
colonies because they conserved warmth and provided privacy. Today, many people prefer to forgo the canopy altogether, so this canopy is optional. The Pencil Post Bed comes standard with a Horizon Headboard, but they will gladly substitute a Hillside
or Sunrise Headboard at your request.
