Finding the Right Beds-frames for You
We find relaxation and solace in our bedrooms, which are often the most cherished rooms of a home. Your antique, new or vintage bed and bed frame are integral to this oasis of personal comfort.
Beds and bed frames have long been an important part of the sanctuary that is the bedroom. For the upper class in countries such as England, the massive, costly beds of the 16th and 17th centuries were decorative and of the poster variety. Some were characterized by large painted wooden headboards, often made of oak, that featured ornate carvings and richly colored curtains affixed to each of the two or four posts — think of today’s sumptuous upholstered headboards as a distant cousin to these luxurious furnishings. The heavy fabric curtains were drawn across a fringed canopy to close out the sunlight that might’ve warmed your grandiose and opulent bedchambers. This feature could also offer privacy as desired, because, as we all know, a bedroom is for more than just sleeping.
Coiled springs didn’t make their way into mattresses until the 1800s, which likely made for a far more comfortable night’s sleep for many. Bed frames of cast iron and brass were introduced during the mid- to late-19th century. Later, the 20th century brought with it marvelous innovations for slumberland, among them daybeds from the likes of George Nelson and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich as well as convertible sofa beds.
Today, you will find a range of beds geared toward your individual personality and preferred style of decor. When shopping for a bed and bed frame, keep in mind that you’ve got options. Sizes range from twin to California king. At 76 inches wide and 80 inches long, a king-size bed is roughly 16 inches wider than a queen-size mattress, and your bed frame will likely add two to five inches to each side. (The California king bed is 84 inches long.)
From dramatic bedroom designs to uncomplicated, minimalist approaches, the bedroom has evolved into the haven that it should be: a peaceful place of respite, where we begin and end every day. Take the time to create your very own oasis — you deserve it. Rest easy with an expansive collection of antique, new and vintage beds and bed frames available on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Yes, a single bed is the same as a twin. The two terms can be used interchangeably to describe a bed that is 38 inches wide by 75 inches long.
- Are there long twin beds?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, there are two popular twin bed sizes—the standard and the extra long. A standard twin bed has a length of 75 inches, while a twin extra long bed is 80 inches long. Both beds are 38 inches wide. Find a collection of vintage and modern twin beds on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 28, 2024No, daybeds are not typically smaller than twin beds. While today's daybeds can be found in all kinds of sizes, they were traditionally in fact the size of a standard twin bed. Variations on the daybed have been developed all over the world, and contemporary examples come in all shapes, upholstery options and sizes.
Daybeds, which traditionally comprise a simple three-sided frame and twin-size mattress or boxy foam cushion, have a long history that dates back at least to the early Greeks and Romans. Daybeds are no longer limited to twin size, and you're unlikely to find many that are smaller than twin beds.
All manner of daybeds have materialized over the years. There are ornate, unconventional versions created in the Louis XV, Art Deco and Empire styles, while popular mid-century modern iterations include the Barcelona daybed, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich, as well as the Nelson daybed, which architect George Nelson created for Herman Miller in the 1940s. But you don’t have to limit yourself to one of the classics.
Find vintage daybeds for sale on 1stDibs. - Do two twin beds make a queen?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021No, two twin beds do not make a queen. Two twin beds equal 78 inches in width, which is much larger than a queen size mattress which is 60 inches wide.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022While you don’t always need a box spring for a twin size bed, the bed frame should have slats to properly support the sleeper. On 1stDibs, find a collection of twin bed frames from some of the world’s top sellers.
