Beds with Legs

This lovely four poster solid Maple bed with a Shaker style is supported by the actual four posts with slats beneath the box spring mattress. The tapered posts lend simple elegance and clean lines for a small room.

This four poster solid Maple bed with is also supported by the four posts with slats beneath the box spring mattress. The tapered posts are shorter than the previous example, topped by decorative turned pinnacles.

Another platform bed supported by legs was for a futon mattress. This is an example of using exotic woods – Zebra wood and Wenge – for the frame while using Ash for the slats and legs.

This bedroom suite in Ash includes a platform bed, supported by legs, for box spring and mattress, with head and foot boards to match. The varying pattern of the slats gives a unique, airy look – it lightens up the wood. Notice the matching swirl of the grain in both the headboard and footboard top rails. My selection of wood gave my customer something extra to appreciate – for that rainy Saturday she lolled about in bed!

The matching night stands have closed in fronts – it’s a drawer and door combination, useful to hiding personal clutter and giving a crisp line to the room. At the foot of the bed, an elegant receiving table highlights the natural finish of the Ash bedroom suite.

Another example of a slat bed done in Alder with head and foot rail accented in Walnut. Notice the alternating slat space for a different look.
