To find the maker of your headboard using a serial number, start by checking the manufacturer's label, which is often located on the back or underside of the furniture. If the label is absent, you can search online using the serial number along with keywords like "headboard manufacturer" to see if it matches any known brands. Additionally, consider posting a photo of the headboard and the serial number on furniture forums or social media groups dedicated to furniture identification, where enthusiasts may help identify the maker.
