Sleigh Beds

What Is A Sleigh Bed?

A sleigh bed is characterised by headboards and footboards which are curved. They are also known as scroll beds due to their distinctive design. Sleigh beds are typically made from robust and solid materials, finished with luxurious scrolled edges which have been a popular style statement for hundreds of years. A timeless option, sleigh bed frames are equally at home in contemporarily designed bedrooms as they are alongside vintage décor, forming the focal point of any room.

Sleigh bed frames are heralded for their size and elegance. A unique shape, traditional sleigh beds are larger than the majority of other designs, with most models having large side panels which reduce an underbed gap. While this limits storage space below the base, there are storage sleigh beds with hidden areas cleverly placed elsewhere, such as foot-end drawers.

Types Of Sleigh Bed Frames Available

Sleigh bed frames were traditionally made from heavy wood, which was carved to form rounded edges. Modern innovations have seen the design receive a fabric facelift, with synthetic sleigh beds increasingly popular. Our range comprises of both wooden beds and upholstered styles to suit all tastes.

Wooden Sleigh Beds

Wooden sleigh bed frames are a rustic bed design which won’t go out of style. Our solid wood sleigh beds are crafted from quality pine, coming in styles which range from a light-coloured pine sleigh bed to the rich dark stain finish of our Otis model. There is also the option to select your desired slatted base type. Choose between solid or sprung slats, depending on how much support you require.

Upholstered Sleigh Beds

Fabric sleigh beds add an extra comfort layer, covering the frame in soft synthetic materials. Our upholstered bed frames are available as a bonded brown leather option or a grey sleigh bed made from fabric. Both variations feature an innovative hidden storage drawer at the foot end. These sleigh beds with storage are built with a reinforced drawer with plenty of depth. The sleigh beds with drawers combine attention-grabbing style with storage functionality.
