We are so happy to announce that our Black Lotus furniture range has been re-stocked!
After a few years of uncertainty, we have secured a new supplier for our exclusive designs. In this blog I’ll run through why we chose them, new photography and also what you can continue to expect from this line!

The Black Lotus Collection – an overview

One thing that certainly hasn’t changed, is the quality and simplistic design of this beautiful furniture range!
Exclusive to Natural Bed Company, the Black Lotus range of bedroom storage was designed by our founder, Peter Bennion.
Made up of high quality, stylish storage solutions, this collection is beautifully crafted for us by an eco conscious European manufacturer. The furniture created by this manufacturer has a more rustic look than ou previous Vietnam made range. This collection makes a feature of the natural knots and variation in grain found in solid timber.

Perfectly designed to suit our handmade solid wooden beds, this family of wooden furniture is available in two styles:

Cube

Based on our original Cube bedside table, this range is simple, modern and beautiful.
Made from solid timber, the cube range features a small shelf positioned at either the top or bottom of the unit – perfect for storing books, slippers etc. Or leave open for a sophisticated and minimal look!

From a compact bedside table with two drawers to a five drawer tall boy and an end-of-bed bench. The clean lines of the Cube range ensures that they look good with any of our contemporary bed bases.

Shaker

This range has a classic style – the top is a little wider than the frame, it has simple handle-less drawers and the frame sits on four square section legs. The design of this collection is inspired by simple ‘Shaker’ look furniture, but has a more modern sensibility.

Made up of five pieces, from a two-drawer bedside unit, to a tall five-drawer chest. The clean and timeless look of this range makes them perfect for pairing with our Classic bed designs!

Please note: At the time this is written, we expect the Shaker stock to arrive early 2024!

Black Lotus manufacturer’s eco credentials

Something that is always important to us here at NBC is being as eco conscious as we can – as individuals and as a business. The new supplier of Black Lotus furniture has an ethos that felt very suited to us . Check out some of their key credentials below:

  • Solar power – The factory has recently installed a solar power farm on their roof which generates around 70% of their energy consumption. They have plans to install more solar panels to be able to provide 100% of their usage in future!
  • Timber – All wood used by the factory is FSC certified, and is complies with all EUTR and UKTR regulations.
  • Forestation – For every tree cut down to produce the Black Lotus furniture, at least 10 new trees are planted!
  • Waste Materials – The factory uses all of its off-cuts to produce wooden pellets for heating. This means they are operating on a zero waste policy whilst also providing one of the most efficient ways for people to heat their home.
  • BSCI – The factory is regularly audited by BSCI. This shows that their work force is treated fairly, no under-aged people are employed and also that health and safety standards are adhered to.
