Originally a guestroom, the Chippendale Bedroom borrows its name from a style of 18th-century furniture inspired by the influential English cabinetmaker Thomas Chippendale. The brilliantly red centerpiece, a bedstead, would have been the room’s most labor-intensive piece of furniture to create in the 1700s. It required the skills of many artisans, including a cabinetmaker, an upholsterer, and a carver.
