“Old is Gold”- Modern generation still believes in this buzzword showing special honour to everything we inherited from our ancestors. Antique means strong, durable, supportive and obviously best quality. With the same thought and trust in mind I tried to draw an analogy with my modern home furniture and succeed to achieve the classy feeling as anticipated. The idea of incorporating ancient culture to your modern day furniture style would not deprive you from the taste of rich heritage along with king size comfort.
At any point of time old furniture is adventurous, especially if you are thinking of furnishing your living room and bed room with mahogany chairs, triangular bookshelves, bookcase mouldings, side boards, rocking chairs, upholstered lounge chairs, bedside tables, cupboards and traditional glazed doors. I like doing experiments with my home accessories, so I allowed myself sufficient time to select models from the collection of dull, aged portraits several decades back. I felt my home lacked some indefinable atmosphere and wanted to gather sense of homeliness resulting from the decors.
Century old grandfather type of furniture always carries the history of different ages. Six different woods—walnut, mahogany, pine, beech, elm, and oak were used as the main manufacturing materials. While deciding on the items to imitate, the combinations that had a great impact on me was a high-back arm-chair of beech with an elm seat, oak gate-leg table, ear feature on Mahogany chair end, a rosewood table, a tortoise shell mirror, a black dial clock, Spanish carpet, cherry wood tambour desk and many more. I went ages back when I attended a trade fair of high valued furniture arranged for sale last spring.

The most important thing to remember is the space in your room. If it is spacious enough you can go for king size bed. But if it is not then a double bed will do. You also need some wider space to move around after placing the furniture in their places.
You need to consider another fact that is the style of your house. Is it a traditional house or a modern house? Traditional wooden furniture will surely complement the look of your bedroom if you have a traditional house. Otherwise sophisticated bed, sleek soft set will be perfect for your room.
People often try to maintain a harmony between all the furniture in different rooms. But sticking to this norm is not important. You can break away the style in your bedroom. Make it a peaceful room because your start your day from here and ends your day here as well.
The only room in your house which is most private is the bedroom so the bedroom design must be the personal preference of the owner only. Normally, the quality of the furniture which you would use must be large enough to make use of the bedroom most comfy. It is should be remembered that the size of the bed must not be large enough because it makes your room stuffy to walk and not enough space to clean your room properly. In case if you have a small bedroom then it is always advisable to pick bed which has wheels equipped in it.
Today you could get various types and different design of mattress like sponge mattress, spring mattress, kapok mattress, fiber coconut mattress etc. It is should be kept in mind that the design of the mattress should be select according to the age of the person.

Another important thing is that your size of the mattress must match the size of your bed and your bedroom.
Normally the life span of mattress is form 10 to 15 years. However the life time of the mattress depend upon the proper maintenance of it.

Be sure that your bed should not be too high and doesn’t have sharp corner. In some case if you find sharp corners in your bed then try to stick shock proof material to protect your bed from bumping against other furniture.
