Circular Bed in Carved Teak - Gold Pierced Headboard with Side Stools

A circle has no head and no foot, which changes how a bedroom is arranged around it. Rectangular beds push against a wall because they have a back; a round bed can sit in the middle of a floor and still make sense from every side. That is why circular beds have always belonged to large rooms - they need space around them to read as circles at all.

Building the curve is the whole craft. A round base cannot be jointed from four straight rails, so the rail is built up in layers bent to a former and left to take the shape permanently. Get the former wrong and the circle is an ellipse that nobody can quite name but everybody notices.

The pierced headboard follows from the same thinking. A solid panel behind a round bed would look like a wall that had wandered into the room; cutting it through turns it into a screen, so light and the colour of the room behind pass into the design. Our master Indian artisans cut every opening by hand, following the grain so each thin section runs along the wood's strength.

Material: Solid teak throughout, including headboard, curved base rail, feet and the side stools.

Headboard: Tall openwork panel carved through in scroll, leaf and floral forms, rising to a central peak, with a solid shaped cartouche at the lower centre.

Base: True circular base rail built as a continuous curve, carved with a running band of scroll and flower, with heavy carved volutes at the front on carved feet.

Side stools: Round tops with carved aprons, cabriole legs joined by stretchers. Included as shown and available in any quantity.

Finish: Shown in gold, and available in silver, ivory, or natural teak tones.

Mattress: Circular mattress made to the same diameter can be arranged with the bed.

Sizes: Custom diameters made to order - final measurements confirmed in writing before production.

Openwork is the most delicate thing to move, and this headboard is mostly openwork, so it is packed with support on both faces: shaped foam pressed into the cut-through sections from front and back, so every thin section is held rather than left free to flex.

The peak at the top, which is the narrowest point of the whole panel, is given its own rigid foam shell before the headboard is boxed with corner protection all round.

The curved base rail travels as a shaped assembly, edge-guarded along its carved band and blocked into a crate cut to its own curve, because a round component cannot be packed in a square box without pressure points. The carved volutes and feet are collared individually.

The side stools are wrapped with legs foam-collared and stretchers protected. Everything is crated together and marked with handling instructions. Every photograph on this page is of the actual bed, taken before packing - real furniture, not a render.

Delivery is free anywhere in India and included in the price you are quoted, with no freight, packing or handling charge appearing later.

Production starts once your diameter and finish are confirmed in writing. We give you a realistic timeline at that point and send photographs of your own bed as the base is shaped and the headboard cut.

On arrival the bed is carried in and assembled in your room: base rail set and levelled, headboard raised and seated, and the side stools placed where you want them. Access is worth mentioning early - a circular base is a large single curve, so tell us about lift sizes or staircase turns when you order and we design the assembly around them. We guarantee dent-free arrival, and if anything is not right, tell us and we will fix it.

The solid teak frame and joinery of this bed are covered for 20 years, and on a circular bed that cover is doing something specific: it stands behind the curved base rail, which is the most demanding element in the piece and the one that decides whether the bed still reads as a true circle in twenty years.

A lifetime warranty against termite damage runs with it for as long as you own the bed, backed by teak's own resistance and confirmed in writing.

Gilding can be cleaned back and re-laid whenever you want it refreshed, and because we keep the specification of your exact bed on file - including its exact diameter - anything made later fits properly, whether that is a replacement fitting, an additional side stool or a matching piece for the room. Our own master Indian artisans do the work, and we explain what it involves before starting.
