European style canopy beds with metal rails often have serpent shapes to add a dramatic effect. The canopy bed frame as we know it first appeared in Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries where the bedroom was part of a big hall and the canopy was needed to provide privacy to the Lord and Lady of the house from the sleeping servants. Curtains were also meant to keep out smoke, insect and other debris. The traditional canopy bed had two distinctive styles:
Traditional European
Traditional Chinese

Traditional European canopy beds were made from metal or wood with grand intricate decorations and carvings and thick drapes.
