Upholstered Headboards

Padded headboard styles

From classic styles to minimalist chic designs, a luxury headboard can transform the look and feel of your bedroom. An upholstered headboard can be matched to your upholstered bed, or used to add a softer feel to a metal or wooden base.

Buttoned

A headboard with button detailing can make your room look chic and romantic. Winged headboards have panels either side. This helps the bed to feel grander and also gives you an extra place to lean your head. If you’re looking for a traditional style which adds a big statement to the room, the Canberra winged headboard could be a fantastic option. This headboard comes in a soft cream fabric with a herringbone texture which will complement most colours.

Plain upholstered

If you want to add a subtle accent to your bed but prefer a simple aesthetic, a plain padded headboard can provide an excellent solution. Coming in four different colours, the Newark headboard is a rectangle shape covered in a chic, woven fabric. This makes a great choice for guest bedrooms where you want to keep the décor neutral while still providing your guests with somewhere comfortable to rest their head before they go to sleep.

Bordered

For a truly sophisticated design, choose a headboard with border detail. These headboards can make you feel like you’re going to sleep in a 5* hotel every night. The Hatton headboard is a stunning option for those wanting to bring a modern element to their bedroom while still keeping the comfort and soft furnishing addition that an upholstered headboard brings.

Striped

If buttons aren’t your thing but you want a headboard with a noticeable design element, a style with stripes can provide a brilliant solution. Made to look like panels, these headboards are timeless and can come with lines going horizontally or vertically. If you have a narrow bed that you want to make look bigger, choose a style with horizontal stripes like the popular Stamford headboard. Or, if you want to add height to the room, a style with vertical stripes can provide this illusion. The Helvellyn headboard is a great option here. Whatever style you choose, all upholstered and fabric headboards bring an element of luxury to your bedroom and make the room feel instantly more glamorous.

Headboard shapes

Due to the way fabric headboards are constructed, they are only available in full shapes without cut-outs. As such, there are some standard shapes to choose from:

Rectangle

Rectangle upholstered headboards are the most common, as they are available in all sizes and styles, making them extremely adaptable to suit all décors.

Curved

Curved fabric headboards offer a softer aesthetic, which adds a touch of elegance and helps the room feel cosy.

Hexagonal

This traditional hexagonal design can make a real statement and add drama to the room.
