A matching pair of classic antique metal beds finished in white with straight brass top rails, round knobs and collars, and attractive castings.
These fine Victorian-era single beds, crafted from cream-painted cast iron with brass accents, date back to the late 19th century. Their intricate detailing and robust construction reflect the craftsmanship of the period. Suitable for standard UK single size mattresses, these beds have been carefully restored to preserve their historical charm while ensuring modern comfort. The brass has an aged look but can be polished if required.
These beds accept standard UK single size 3'0" wide by 6'3" long bases and mattresses. There is an option to lengthen the beds so they accept 6'6", which are preferable for adults. It is possible to join these two beds to form a 6'0 wide (UK Super King) bed, and provide mattresses that zip together.
You will need bed bases to support the mattress. Bed bases sit on the bedstead frame and can be either Firm or Sprung and come in different depths with a choice of covers.
You have the option here to select Standard Single (3'0x6'3) Bases, either Firm or Sprung, and in Black & White Ticking or Cream Damask. For a full range of base choices please see our Single Bed Base page.
You can also choose a mattress to fit from our Single Mattresses.
Each Bed has dimensions:
Height - 53"
Width - 36"
Length - 79"

This genuine antique bed has been faithfully and lovingly restored by Seventh Heaven. Our craftsmen are experts at renovating these beautiful pieces, converting them to be functional in the modern world, whilst carefully retaining their original charm and authenticity. Special attention is put to ensuring they are sturdy and structurally sound, so they can support even the heaviest of mattresses and will not rock or creak. We pride ourselves in our attention to detail and our quality control is second to none. You will appreciate the fact that you have bought a Seventh Heaven bed rather than one from a random dealer, eBay or indeed one of our competitors.
It is extremely rare to source wider antique beds, which is why we specialise in extending the original antique frames to king and super king sizes. Our workmanship is of the highest quality, and we have decades of experience in this field - you would never know that our craftsmen have altered them. The purists might complain that we are compromising the authenticity of the antique bed, but we are proud that we can adapt these beautiful pieces so they can be fully enjoyed in the modern sizes, and we are sure they will be treasured for generations to come. Besides, for those that prefer their antiques to be as untouched as possible, we can provide beds which have the lightest of restoration, and retain all their charm from the ages, warts and all.
