This classic style bedroom is like a scene of a woman's dream. The coolest thing is the bed canopy. It is a long forgotten element of interior design. Unless you live in a region where you need to use a bed canopy to protect yourself from mosquitoes (which is unlikely), the only reason you may want to have one is for its aesthetic role

I've heard a curious fact about bed canopies, that in medieval times they were needed to protect people from mice falling from the ceiling. I wonder if that's true.
