Eugene O'Neill's home in Danville, CA. It is here that O'Neill wrote the dramatic play that is considered by many to be America's greatest work of tragedy, "Long Day's Journey into Night".
The rosewood Chinese bed in O'Neill's second floor bedroom is either a canopy bed (jiazi chuang) or a daybed (Luohan chuang). In either case, the original canopy frame or daybed risers have been sawed off. This piece of furniture is often erroneously and insensitively identified as an "opium bed." This incorrect attribution is due to the bed's purchaser's love of the theatrical. Perhaps Carlotta O'Neill accepted as fact an apocraphyl tale of the bed's history told to her by the person selling her the bed, as a means to increase its cachet. Opium beds are not a recognized type of furniture and exist only as a class of furniture in the minds of the gullible and unthinking. There is no more such a thing as an "opium bed", than there is a Tiffany cocaine mirror.
