Headboards (196)
The headboard is a piece of furniture that attaches to the head of a bed. Its most basic function is to retain the pillow(s) and other bed linens. A headboard may be strictly utilitarian, but frequently has aesthetic value and may be a decorative focus for a bedroom.
A headboard may also be utilized to provide a wide variety of other functions, such as providing simple storage, or incorporation into the critical care functions of a hospital bed.
It may often, but not always, be complemented by a spragging board at the foot of the bed; again with a function to retain the bed linen or extend the decorative function of the headboard but also to provide the occupant(s) purchase for the feet.
