This bed is available in either a high footboard, low footboard, no footboard, or a drawer unit base. The Antique Mission case goods all have side mount drawers. All of our furniture is protected by two coats of a catalyzed conversion varnish.  This finish makes your furniture resistant to water spots, warm to hot dishes, fingernail polish, fingernail polish remover, and much more.  To see more details about the finish, visit the Our Furniture page.
