Leather Beds
Leather and faux leather beds have become hugely popular over the last few years and their ready availability together with low prices have helped to bring quality leather beds down to price points that are affordable for all.
The main developments on leather beds have been in Southern China and upholstery retailers have paved the way for high quality leather beds to be made available for the UK market.
Upholstery skills learnt by workforces on complicated upholstery items such as recliners and other upmarket sofas, has brought big improvement in the availability of consistently high quality leather beds.
A great many leather bed designs are available, from the hand crafted and complicated sleigh style bedstead to the simple contemporary lines of a leather bedstead with plain square headboard and matching foot end.
Sewing skills have also improved enormously and today’s faux leather fabrics are truly excellent. New technology has significantly improved the look and feel of the leather beds to such an extent that even experienced retailers like ourselves have great difficulty in distinguishing which leather beds are real leather and which are faux leather beds. In the majority of instances the only way of identifying real leather beds is through the distinctive smell. This unique leather odour will of course fade with time and many consumers prefer faux leather because it looks just as good, creates less issues with matching hides and is much more affordable.
We provide an excellent choice of faux leather beds within our wide range of leather beds to provide our customers with the good looks at great prices.
We have also pioneered the leather bedstead with built-in under bed storage drawers and each of these leather beds is individually hand crafted to ensure a perfect drawer fit.
Look out for the sprung wooden mattress support systems, which feature in our entire leather bedstead range, providing good support for the mattresses and improve their durability whilst providing you with a more comfortable nights sleep!
The centre support legs on all our leather bed ranges are vital for support and the metal side rail brackets with slot in tongues are a must for secure assembly of the leather beds. Once your bed is assembled it is advisable to check the tightness of the side rail fixings on a reasonably regular basis.
Dark brown leather beds are currently the most popular colour followed by black leather. Many of our leather beds and faux leather beds are also available in white or cream.
All our leather beds and faux leather beds are flat packed for ease of delivery and consist of a head end, a foot end, two side rails, centre rail, centre support leg and a wooden spring slat mattress support system.
