Product Description

One of our most popular – and most long-running – designs, the Kyoto is a minimal, Japanese style bed frame with plank legs and a low, almost floating profile. Made here in Scottish Elm, this special edition timber is available for a limited time only. You can find more detailed information on this timber in our Scottish Elm Bed Collection post.

Crafted by hand in our Sheffield workshop, this special edition batch of Double (135x190cm), King-size (150x200cm) and Super-King (180x200cm) models are made from locally-sourced Scottish Elm from Albion Timber.

About Scottish Elm:

Scottish Elm is a beautifully wild, characterful timber. It is possible to see a variety of tones within this warm, mid-brown timber such as deeper brown, touches of pink and green, all of which will deepen slightly with time. Visually, the grain is fairly tight and twisted, providing plenty of interesting pattern and variety. As with our English Oak bed bases, the grain features knots and burrs due to the natural growing conditions in Northern Scotland. You can read more on this timber within our

Lacquer Finish:

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.

More Information:

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.

Easy self assembly. Click here to see our simple self assembly instructions. Moreover, there is no need to worry about getting it upstairs – the flat pack design takes care of that.

Mattress Depth Information:
Due to its low headboard and minimal profile, the Kyoto is best suited for use with mattresses that are 20cm deep or less, and it is pictured above with 18 - 20cm deep mattresses.

If you have a deeper mattress than this, we can customise the Kyoto slightly by adding a maximum of 5cm to the headboard panel. This customisation does incur an additional cost, which varies depending on the size and timber. Please contact us for a quote if you would like to purchase a Kyoto with a customised headboard panel.
