The Queen home: Her Majesty has a jaw-dropping bed at her home of Windsor Castle – and she doesn't even sleep in it
The Queen now permanently resides at her impressive residence of Windsor Castle, and on Thursday, one of the eye-popping bedrooms at the castle was revealed on Instagram.

The grand canopy hanging above the four-poster bed is the most captivating element, in contrasting colours of green and purple. Look closely and you'll see the crown at the top complete with ostrich feather detail!
While it's not the monarch's personal bed, we're still quite surprised to see a creation as zany as this inside the walls of a royal residence.
Fans were blown away by the bed, taking to the comments section to express their thoughts.
"The canopy makes the bed look so tiny," one pointed out. "It's so beautiful," penned another, while a third wrote: "Magnificent."

The caption of the striking image read: "When Napoleon III visited Queen Victoria at Windsor Castle in 1855, this bed was specially re-upholstered in his personal colours – purple and green. A magnificent ostrich-feather plume crowns the silk canopy.
"The bed originally belonged to Queen Victoria’s uncle, George IV, and was made for his bedroom at Carlton House in London in the 1780s. Today you can see it in the King’s Bedchamber on a visit to Windsor Castle."

The beautiful clips of the spectacular light fittings being cleaned and pulled back up to the ceiling were mesmerising to watch.
