Bold and Beautiful

When it comes to making a statement, there’s nothing quite like a black bed frame. These beds ooze style and class, with their dark finish being either a perfect contrast or blending into your current interior design.

Our black wooden beds are available in a diverse range of styles to match your needs. From more traditional designs like four-poster beds to modern low wooden beds, there’s a size and style to suit all preferences. Each frame is built to order by hand to your exact specifications, either with or without a headboard and shipped right to your door for easy assembly.

Why Choose a Black Wooden Bed?

Aside from their aesthetic benefits, we pride ourselves on creating stylish beds that don’t just look the part but stand the test of time.

Durability: In addition to top-quality oak and pine materials, each black wooden bed is protected with a clear lacquer to keep the rich colour from stains and spills.

Making a statement: With its bold, black colour, our black wooden beds are sure to make a statement in any room they’re placed. If your room needs a focal point, this might be just what you need.

Easy maintenance: Being a darker shade, black wooden beds are less likely to show scuffs and marks compared to lighter finishes. The wood itself is also much easier to clean compared to upholstered beds, for example, simply wipe away dust with a damp cloth, and your bed looks as good as new.

Black Wooden Bed Materials

All of our wooden beds, including our black beds, are made from one of two materials:

Black Oak Wooden Beds: Oak is a customer favourite across our whole range. As a hardwood, the slow-growing process means that oak is a much denser material compared to pine, which makes it more resilient to everyday life. Plus, oak has a very distinct grain pattern, which can be brought to life through either light or dark stains.

Black Pine Wooden Beds: Although pine is generally regarded as less durable than oak, we’re proud to only use the highest quality pine we can find, prioritising sustainably sourced cuts from reputable providers. This ensures utmost quality for every bed we build, with our high standards being followed regardless of the material.

Black Wooden Bed Styles

No matter your preferences, we’ve catered for most bed frame styles across our selection. This includes a healthy mix of both classic and modern designs.

Standard Height Beds: Designed to be accessible and widely compatible with different rooms, our standard height beds feature a footboard height of 40 cm.

Low Wooden Beds: Low wooden beds are designed to meet unique challenges imposed by lower ceilings, making them great for loft conversions or minimalist interiors.

Platform Beds: Our platform beds feature a solid base that stretches along the length and width of the mattress, providing a firmer feel.

Beds With Headboards: For fans of traditional bed designs, we offer most styles of beds with a headboard if desired.

Ottoman Storage Beds: To keep clutter at bay, nothing quite beats an ottoman. These beds feature a lifting mattress that reveals a spacious storage compartment beneath.

Oak Bed Frames: Oak is a common choice throughout our bed frame range, with many customers preferring the visual and functional benefits of the material.

Four Poster Beds: The classic four-poster has been around since the 16th century. See our modern take on this tried-and-tested design.

Live Edge Bed Frames: Live-edge beds follow the unique characteristics of the wood from which they’re cut. They celebrate the grain, knots, and special oddities, rather than hiding them.

Maintaining Your Black Wooden Bed

Keeping your black wooden bed in top shape is straightforward and easy. Simply give the frame an occasional dusting every once in a while, and for anything more serious, we recommend a clean, damp cloth and some water.

Try to avoid harsh cleaning chemicals where possible, as these may impact the clear lacquer placed on top.

Other Stain Options

Prefer another style? Explore our full range of finishes to find your perfect bed. From lighter options to even completely unfinished wood, you can make your bed truly your own:

Unfinished Wooden Beds: If you like the look of natural oak or pine, we can supply your bed in its raw material, with no lacquer.

White Wooden Beds: Is natural too dark? If so, our clear white stain adds a vibrant, matte finish to your bed frame - a great choice for contemporary rooms.

Light Wooden Beds: To protect the bed frame’s grain and patterns, we can apply a clear, water-based lacquer that showcases the natural finish, while adding protection.

Medium Wooden Beds: Our medium stain enhances the appearance of your wooden frame, adding a touch of warmth to your room.

Walnut Wooden Beds: As the second darkest finish we offer, a walnut frame oozes class and character, no matter the frame.
