Mint Green Bed in Carved Teak - White Frame with Heart Headboard

Dividing a headboard into a raised centre and two lower wings is a shape borrowed from the chair back, and it is more useful on a bed than it looks. Two people sleeping side by side each lean against their own wing; the centre panel is where nobody sits, so it can be lifted forward and made into the feature without getting in anyone's way. Form following use, as most good furniture shapes do.

Making that centre a heart is a decision about warmth rather than about romance. A circle or an oval at the middle would read as formal; a heart softens the composition and gives the pierced carving above it a curved base to sit on, which is why the scrollwork resolves so easily into the crest.

Pale on pale is the harder finish to carve for, and our master Indian artisans cut deeper for it. On a white frame there is no colour contrast doing the work - only shadow - so every scroll has to be undercut far enough to cast one. Shallow carving on a white piece disappears entirely under the finish.

Material: Solid teak frame throughout, including headboard, footboard, rails and plinth.

Headboard: Heart-shaped buttoned centre panel raised forward of the frame, two buttoned side wings with scrolled ends, pierced white carved scrollwork above rising to a crest with a gilded medallion.

Footboard: Long buttoned panel with crystal studs, gilded pineapple in a carved centre cartouche, carved scrollwork with gilded rosettes to both corners, heavy carved scroll uprights on a moulded plinth.

Upholstery: Shown in soft mint green, and made in any fabric and colour you choose.

Finish: White with sparing gold detail as shown, and available in gold, ivory, champagne or natural teak tones.

Buttons: Crystal studs as shown, or fabric-covered or metal buttons.

Storage: Available with hydraulic lift-up storage or base drawers designed in.

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

A white finish shows every mark, so every painted surface on this bed is covered first in a soft, completely non-abrasive layer laid on without tension, and nothing slides across it at any point.

The pierced scrollwork above the headboard is foam-faced from both sides so the open sections are supported, and the gilded crest medallion is capped separately.

The raised heart panel stands forward of the frame, so it is packed with support around its edges rather than across its face, and all three buttoned panels are bagged in breathable covers.

The gilded pineapple at the footboard centre and the carved scroll uprights are each given shaped foam shells. Crystal buttons are protected from any pressure across their faces. Rails are bundled, the plinth boxed separately, fittings pouched. Everything is crated together with handling instructions. Every photograph here is of the actual bed before packing - not a render.

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

Production begins once your size, fabric and finish are confirmed in writing. We give you a realistic timeline then and send photographs of your own bed as the scrollwork is pierced, the white finish laid and the panels upholstered.

On arrival the bed is carried in and assembled in your bedroom: plinth positioned, headboard and footboard joined to the rails, everything levelled to your floor, and the white finish and upholstery inspected and cleaned down before we leave. We guarantee dent-free arrival, and if anything is not right when you see it, tell us and we will make it right.

The solid teak frame and joinery are covered for 20 years - the headboard structure carrying three separately shaped panels, the footboard, the side rails, the plinth and every joint between them.

A lifetime warranty against termite damage runs with it for as long as the bed is yours, backed by teak's natural resistance and set out in writing.

A pale bed is one people often want freshened after some years, and both surfaces can be. The white finish is cleaned back and re-laid, and the upholstery re-covered - and because every panel here is a shape rather than a rectangle, having the original patterns matters. We keep the specification of your exact bed on file, including the heart and wing profiles and the buttoning grid, so new panels fit the carved openings precisely. Our own master Indian artisans do the work and explain it beforehand.
