Samarkand – Indian Style Wooden Bed

(1 customer review)

from £1,045

A classic, Indian inspired wooden bed, the Samarkand features an exotic design and hand carved leg details. Similar to our Mandalay, but 7cm higher from the floor and with a larger headboard – great for pillow lovers.

It is pictured here in walnut in a UK kingsize, and in cherry in a three-quarter size.

Please see the tabs below for further information on this design, including dimensions, lead time and timber options etc.

Product Description

Inspired by traditional Indian wood carving, the Samarkand is a truly unique bed. With a striking design, it is the taller version of our Mandalay. The finer details of the Samarkand pay homage to a classic, Indian look, with a dash of contemporary design. The perfect bed for either an exotic or bohemian-inspired room, or for adding flair to a more minimal scheme.

Unsure of which timber to pick? You can order your free timber samples here.

Every bed base is made to order. Our lead-time is usually around 8 weeks (+ delivery). This can fluctuate throughout the year, so please do get in touch for the most up to date information.

Our ‘natural’ look lacquer finish, named for its clarity, allows you to appreciate the myriad colours and subtle variations in the tone of natural timber. It also retains a very subtle, soft sheen which protects the timber from grease marks and some stains.

Interested in a custom finish? Check out all of our current finishes on the Our Timbers page.

All our wooden beds are fitted as standard with sprung beech slats for extra comfort, and to also help increase the life of your mattress. If you would like to up lift to fixed pine slats, please contact us for a quote. You can find out more about both slat options here. 

Our slats are approximately 6.5cm wide and the gap between them is also approx. 6.5cm.

This bed is delivered flat-packed for self-assembly. Click here to see our simple self assembly instructions and demonstration video. The Samarkand base is listed under the Core Collection/Nevada Range.

This bed base will take between 20 – 30 minutes to assemble.

  1. Linda Davidson (verified owner) –

    This bed is fabulous, simple, stylish, easy to construct and very good value for money. The customer service was excellent, telephoning me to confirm all aspects of the order were correct and suggesting modification to the headboard height to accommodate my mattress with no extra cost.. Highly recommended!
