Wooden Double Bed in Carved Teak - Tall Arched Headboard with Posts

The arch above a bed is one of the oldest gestures in furniture. It comes from architecture, where an arch marks the important place in a wall, and a headboard borrowed it for exactly the same reason: it tells the room where the centre is. Everything else in a bedroom arranges itself around that line.

The fan grain inside the arch is a decision made before any carving happens, at the point where boards are chosen. To get the grain radiating outward from the base, the panel has to be cut from a section of log where the figure runs that way, and the pieces have to be laid in the right order. It is slow, and it is the reason no two of these panels are alike.

Leaving that panel plain, with all the carving pushed out to the frame around it, is a restraint our master Indian artisans practise deliberately. A carver's instinct is to fill the space. Knowing when to stop is the harder skill, and it is what lets the grain do the work here.

Material: Solid teak throughout, including headboard, posts, footboard, side rails and the bedside chests.

Headboard: Tall arched form with pierced foliate crest, carved scrolling leaf band following the arch, fan-grain centre panel, moulded surround.

Posts: Two turned head posts in stepped sections with urn finials.

Footboard: Low carved panel with foliate centre and carved apron, on turned and carved corner feet.

Bedside chests: Three drawers each with metal pulls, carved and moulded surrounds on carved feet. Included as shown and available in any quantity.

Finish: Shown in a deep brown tone with hand-rubbed polish, and available in any teak tone you choose.

Storage: Built plain as shown, and available with hydraulic lift-up storage or base drawers designed in from the start.

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

The tall headboard is the piece that decides how this bed is packed. Its pierced crest is faced with soft foam on both sides so nothing presses into the cut-through pattern, the arch is edge-guarded along its full curve, and the whole panel is then boxed with rigid corners.

Posts and finials travel wrapped individually, with foam collars around the turned tips where a knock would show. The footboard is packed as its own panel with the carved apron protected along the bottom edge. Side rails are bundled together, and all fittings go into a labelled pouch so no metal moves against carved teak in transit.

The bedside chests have their drawers secured shut and their carved feet blocked in foam before boxing.

All of it is crated together with handling instructions marked outside. The layers are deliberate, not decorative. Every photograph on this page is of the actual bed, taken before packing - real product, not a render.

Delivery is free across India, included in the price you are given. Nothing for freight, packing or handling appears afterwards, wherever the bed is going.

Production starts once your size and finish are confirmed in writing. We give you a realistic timeline at that point, and send photographs of your own bed as the arch is carved and the polish built up.

On arrival our team carries the bed in and assembles it in your bedroom: headboard raised and joined to the rails, footboard fitted, everything levelled against your floor, and the bedside chests placed where you want them. We guarantee dent-free arrival, and if anything is not right when you see it, tell us and we will fix it.

The solid teak frame and joinery here are covered for 20 years - the headboard structure, the posts, the side rails, the footboard and every joint between them. On a bed with a headboard this tall, the joints where the arch meets the posts carry real load, and those are exactly what this warranty is written for.

Alongside it runs a lifetime warranty against termite damage, for as long as the bed is yours. Teak's own oil keeps termites off it, and we back that in writing rather than leaving it as a general claim.

Fittings such as rail brackets, drawer runners and pulls can be replaced whenever you need them, and because we keep the specification of your exact bed on file we send parts made for it rather than something close. Carving repairs and refinishing are handled by our own master Indian artisans, and we tell you what the work involves and how long it will take before we begin.
