Definition
A rail or bar at the top or head of a structure, such as a bed frame or piece of furniture.
Etymology
From 'head' (top portion) and 'rail' (a bar, from Old French 'reille'). This compound became common as furniture designs standardized in the 18th-19th centuries.
Kelly Says
Modern bed frames keep the headrail design from Victorian times, when a decorative rail at the head of the bed was both functional (preventing the mattress from shifting) and a status symbol showing craftsmanship.
