   Headboard character

   Chesterfield look is mostly the padded face — not a special sleep technology.

   • Winged sides Arms that wrap the pillows
   • Scrolled / sleigh outline Curved head and often foot

   Storage

   Storage changes clearance — drawers need pull-out space; ottomans need lid arc space.
