White and Gold King Size Bed - Carved Teak Rose Crest, Crystal Tufted

Carving a Rose in the Round

A rose is one of the harder motifs to carve in wood, which is why most furniture that claims one delivers a flat spiral in relief. A convincing rose needs petals that separate from each other and curl back, and that means cutting behind the petal rather than only into the surface. The carver has to remove material from underneath while leaving the petal above it unsupported, working with a chisel in a space he can barely see into. Each rose on this bed, at the crown and at the foot, is cut this way from solid teak, and it is the single slowest component of the build.

The gold goes on afterwards, by hand and in stages. It is worked into the undercuts and the deep recesses first, then burnished back on the raised petals and scrolls, so the finish is brighter where light would naturally hit and darker where shadow would sit. A sprayed uniform gold does the opposite, flattening carving into a shiny mass. The white panels are then buttoned in with crystal fittings, which are set last so the upholstery is not marked while the frame is being finished. All of it is done by master Indian artisans, and the photographs on this page show the actual piece.

How a Heavily Carved Gold Frame Is Packed

Everything about this bed that makes it worth buying also makes it hard to move. The roses stand proud of the frame, the scrolled foliage projects at the corners, and a gilded surface scuffs from contact that would leave a polished surface untouched. So no part of the carving takes any pressure. Each component is first covered in a soft non-abrasive face layer that will not rub the burnished gold, then set into foam cut to follow the carved profile, so support sits against solid areas and the projecting roses and scrolls are suspended clear of everything.

Corners, legs and the crown of the crest carry additional rigid edge guards. The buttoned white panels travel face-protected with no strapping run across the crystal fittings, since a strap over a crystal button for several days will leave a mark in the upholstery. All of it goes into a strapped rigid crate, and the two bedside chests are boxed separately with drawers immobilised. It is a lot of packaging and it costs us on every order. It is also why we can guarantee your bed arrives dent-free, with the gold unmarked and the carving intact, and why we mean it when we say we will make it right if it does not.

Free PAN-India Delivery, Built After You Order

Delivery is free anywhere in India with no distance surcharge and no freight line on your invoice. Production time is the thing to plan around. This bed is not held in stock, and the roses alone represent days of carving before any of the rest of the frame is touched. After carving comes finishing, which is multi-stage gilding done by hand, and only then the upholstery and buttoning. We give you a realistic completion window once your specification is signed off, and if you have a fixed date such as a wedding or a house handover we will tell you at enquiry whether it is achievable rather than agreeing and then disappointing you.

When it is ready the bed ships in contour-cut multi-layer packing under our dent-free arrival guarantee. We tell you when it dispatches and keep you updated on the road. Our team assembles it in your bedroom, and we ask you to inspect the gold finish, the carving and the buttoning while they are present so anything you are unhappy with is raised immediately. If the approach to the room involves a narrow staircase or a small lift, tell us at enquiry and the frame will be engineered to break down into sections that will actually fit.

What We Guarantee on This Gold Carved Bed

Twenty years on the solid teak frame and every joint in it. Lifetime cover against termite damage, with no end date. That is the structural promise, and it is deliberately specific rather than a vague assurance about quality. A carved bed of this weight puts real load through its joints, particularly at the leg-to-rail connections where the cabriole legs meet the frame, and those are cut and pinned to hold for decades. The termite cover runs for life because teak's oil-based resistance runs for life, and because every board is seasoned and treated before it reaches a carver.

The gold finish, the white upholstery and the crystal buttons sit outside the structural warranty. Gold burnished by hand will soften at the points that get touched most, upholstery marks with use, and both are consequences of living with a bed rather than of how it was made. We say so plainly. What we offer instead is that we will re-gild, re-button or reupholster this piece at any point in its life at an honest price, and that because we carved it we can recut and re-finish a single damaged rose or scroll without touching the rest of the bed. Keep it indoors, away from prolonged direct sun, and do not alter the frame yourself.
