Know before you buy
The bed is constructed from solid, high-quality hardwood. The specific species can vary based on your selection, but all options are chosen for their structural integrity and ability to hold the catalyzed conversion varnish finish.
This finish is significantly more durable than standard lacquers or oils. It creates a hard, moisture-resistant barrier that protects the wood from scratches, heat, and household chemicals, making it ideal for daily use.
The arched panels add visual height to the center of the headboard and footboard. You should measure your wall space to ensure the peak of the arch fits comfortably under any windows or wall art you plan to place above the bed.
Yes, the frame is designed to accommodate most standard mattress foundations, including adjustable bases. However, you may need to forgo the use of the included wooden slats if your adjustable base is designed to sit directly on the floor or within the frame's side rails.
The bed arrives in components—typically the headboard, footboard, side rails, and slats—which require assembly in your bedroom. The pieces use standard heavy-duty hardware that is straightforward to secure with basic household tools.
