About the Item

This bed is my own take on the iconic George Nelson Bed from the heyday of Mid Century Modern. It's built from solid walnut and consists of a thin platform resting on turned legs and a headboard supported by steel brackets. It has a hand-rubbed oil finish. It's the perfect minimal, modern platform bed. I can also build this with storage underneath, as shown in sample image. Please inquire for pricing with storage. The headboard can vary in size to your liking as seen in the pictures. Generally speaking, I offer the headboard in three sizes: 15", 20", and 30". The 30" headboard adds $100 to the price. I place the height of your headboard according to the height of your mattress and your preference as to where it sits in relation to the mattress (i.e. it could float a few inches above the mattress, sit right at the top edge of the mattress, or descend behind the mattress). The price listed here is for a cal king with no storage but I can make the bed in any size.

Deeble Classic Modern Storage Bed & Attached Nightstand Set, Midcentury Walnut
By Pete Deeble
Located in Long Beach, CA
This piece is designed and hand-crafted by yours truly in Long Beach. The bed pictured is built from walnut, but I can use other woods upon request. The design is my own, inspired by the Scandinavian furniture of the 50's (Danish/Mid Century Modern). All joinery is mortise and tenon, which means it's strong and built to last forever. The price listed here is for a queen bed (frame alone is 65" by 85"). We can make this a king or full as well. The bottom of the bed is 8 1/2 inches off the ground, and the top of the headboard is about 39 inches off the ground, and there's about 13 inches from the top of the slats to the bottom of the headboard* (see note below). The mattress rests on slats, and I can put a thin sheet of plywood over the slats to give a uniform, platform-like surface upon request (some folks prefer just the slats- depends on your mattress). It has four drawers underneath, two that slide out on each side (in the picture there are only two long drawers that slide out to either side of the bed, I have since switched to four drawers). Each drawer is approximately 6 inches tall, 29 inches wide, and 27 inches deep** My design approach on the drawers is to keep them recessed behind the edge of the bed, and to have them floating off the ground, so that visually the bed does not feel bulky like most storage beds...
