Letto Limes Large Bed in White Avant Après with Padded Bands Headboard
Located in Brooklyn, NY
The Limes bed maintains the intelligent functionality that characterises the sofa line but has been adapted for a different interior area and function. The lightweight mobile island appears to be floating on its 14 cm rectangular transparent legs. It can become something else by simply adjusting the position of the two metal headboards that can be placed anywhere along mattress’s entire perimeter. Born in 1953 he left formal education and began, almost by chance, his experience in the field of the padded furniture. Fascinated by the world that surrounded him, he eagerly devoted himself to researching building forms and techniques which have borne fruit for the companies in which he worked. In 1991 he opened his studio as an independent designer and in 1993 he came across Saba Italia. New challenges and new incentives lead to the creation of the “nomad sofa”: Taos, Ananta, Limes, Nesting, Pixel. Creations that were born from reflection of new desires that encourage us to live in a less formal way, equipped with systems that enable change with simple gestures, by playing with shapes. Structure: It includes the bed base with wooden slats. Bedframe is in wood padded with polyurethane foam clothed with velfodera coupled to polyester fiber 150gr/sqm. The headboard supports are in metal with chromed finish. Optionally they can be clothed in quilted fabric padded with polyester fiber or can be clothed with bands of fabric coupled with pressed 300gr/sqm. Feet: 14 cm high, in transparent methacrylate with rectangular section. Additional information: Material: wood, polyurethane foam, polyester fiber, metal, methacrylate, upholstery Upholstery: Vip, A1 - Avant Après...

Contemporary Bed Built in White Oak by Boyd & Allister
Located in Santa Fe, NM
This bed was originally designed for one of our clients who owns a historic home in Santa Fe and wanted something contemporary but also fitting with his adobe home. We designed this bed with its frame constructed from solid 2” thick walnut to pick up the weight of the beams in the home. This minimal design uses traditional joinery and clean lines, allowing the beauty of the wood to be the defining characteristic. The design detail of the leg meeting the rails is also a showcase of craftsmanship in its clean joinery. Pictured in this listing are a white oak bed frame...

Antique, New and Vintage Beds and Bed Frames

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.
