Classic and contemporary, the Camden handmade bed base is available here as a special edition, crafted in solid English Oak. This modern design features a retro-style headboard, framed by the elegant curves of the legs with gently softened edges. Crafted by hand in our Sheffield workshop and made from locally-sourced English Oak from Albion Timber.
Compared with American Oak (which we use as standard for all of our wooden beds), English Oak is much more characterful. Growing, harvesting and replenishing English Oak is a much smaller operation, resulting in a more natural look.
The colour is a beautiful golden shade, ranging from pale straw to deep honey browns. This timber features a strong grain and “Cats Paw” clusters of knots peppered throughout. This “Pippy” Oak is the result of the open nature of our woodlands. The easy light penetration encourages a quick growth of buds on the main tree trunks. These growths penetrate deep into the heart wood of the tree, and when cut they appear as ‘cat’s paws’ or patches of burr on the board.
The grain swirls around these knots and clusters, creating beautiful wild patterns and figures. Natural variations such as these are highly prized by furniture makers for truly unique pieces! These pips make stunning timber for special projects.

If you have a much deeper mattress than this, we can customise the design by slightly adding to height of the headboard legs and raising the position of the headboard panel. This customisation may incur an additional cost depending on the adjustment required, which varies depending on the size and timber. If you wish to add this customisation to the headboard panel, you would need to place an order for a new Camden bed on the standard lead time (approx 8 weeks).
