The King Charles - (Mahogany)
Our most intricate sleigh bed, very feminine yet bold and delivering a huge ‘Wow’ factor. For me this bed is truly magnifique and there are no 5 star hotel rooms it would not fail to dominate. This bed takes over 11 weeks to hand carve and finish with intricate detail. A bed with real pomp and ceremony.
The foot and headboard have a substantial curve to them. As you reach the top scroll of each, from a side profile we have deliberately kept the expansive dimension. This gives a better balance to the bed as you look from top to bottom.
This has also given sufficient room to place a very substantial piece of timber (a joist!) at the top of the foot and headboard measuring 4 inches thick and 7 inches deep across the width of the bed. It has a tactile feel to it and you can sense the weight just looking at it.
The work and material that has gone into this bed is significant. Even if you look at the feet behind the headboard, but on the inside where you are unlikely to ever look, you will still find the same carvings as those on the outside.
