The Bed from Old Beams No. 2 is a masterfully crafted piece that brings heritage and sustainability together in one statement-making bed frame. Created from old beams reclaimed from century-old buildings, this bed has a distinctive character enriched by the natural patina of the wood. With a substantial beam thickness of approximately 16-17 cm, the bed is sturdy, durable, and a solid addition to any high-end bedroom. The headboard, also made from these thick, rustic beams, adds a timeless aesthetic to the frame, making it an excellent choice for businesses in the hospitality, retail, or interior design industries seeking a piece that reflects craftsmanship and quality.
The reclaimed wood used in the bed tells a story of traditional woodworking. A century ago, beams were hand-selected, cut, and prepared during winter to ensure the highest quality. Each beam underwent a process of hand-barking, chopping, and careful shaping to maintain the natural grain and stability of the wood. These steps, no longer feasible with today’s fast-paced methods, make the wood far superior to that sourced from modern, managed forests. The oil-wax finish further enhances the wood’s natural beauty while providing protection, giving it a soft sheen without compromising its raw, textured appeal.
Available in three mattress sizes—140 x 200 cm, 160 x 200 cm, and 180 x 200 cm—this bed is adaptable to various interior settings. Each beam is carefully cleaned to maintain its inherent beauty, highlighting the unique grain patterns and weathering acquired over decades. This bed is more than a piece of furniture; it is a blend of history, nature, and artistry that brings an authentic and luxurious touch to modern interiors.
