Cast in Cornwall

The Cornish Bed Company has just unveiled new designs from its Classic Bed collection. We’re giving you an exclusive first look!

The Cornish Bed Company’s hand-cast bespoke beds, made by a small team of skilled craftsmen in the heart of Cornwall, now include a clear powder-coated ‘Maud’, a black and nickel ‘Elizabeth’, and an opulent upholstered four poster ‘Billy’.

“The new designs have come about solely as a result of customers asking us to make bespoke beds. We listened, and worked the new styles into our collection,” explains Cornish Bed Company Director, Garry Smith.

He continues: “These are some of our most sought after beds, so we’re thrilled that we’re able to offer our customers more options to give them exactly the bed they want.

“The range is so new that it’s not yet on our website, so customers who are interested need to give our team a call.”

The company’s foundry, in Par’s historic railway roundhouse, is one of the last in the country to manufacture beds in this way, flying the flag for sustainability and creating beautiful pieces of furniture which are designed and built to last a lifetime.

Its artisans have honed time-honoured techniques, championed by their Victorian forefathers, to produce a range of luxury beds to grace homes and hotels across Europe. Indeed, it’s as far from a production line as you could get. As Garry tells us: “The time and skill our engineers invest is evident in the end result. The beds are stylish and distinctive, an enduring statement of confidence in any home, and incomparable to cheaper modern flat-pack alternatives.”

It’s fair to say then – certainly in this case – that when you buy Cornish, you buy quality.
