This is a beautifully designed hand-cast bedstead, complemented by ornate solid cast tee pieces, a truly sophisticated brass bedroom feature. Offering 2" side posts, solid brass top caps & 3.5" brass balls.
Finished in Antique Brass with a polished Nickel option available.
Hand cast at our Cornwall foundry and made with all the traditional fixings you would expect from an authentic re-production.
The Stratford can be manufactured as a bedstead, bed surround, headboard, or as a bedstead with no foot end, or a four-poster option - We cast our beds to exacting standards using time-honoured skills and craftsmanship.
Every bed is made individually to order, numbered, and signed off by one of our craftsmen. With The Cornish Bed Company, you can be confident that your bedstead will last lifetimes and will become an antique in the future.
All our cast iron, brass and nickel beds, including our four posters are available in the nine standard UK mattress sizes. As we craft our beds to order, just for you, so we can customise the size of your bed as required.

MATTRESSES
We complement our beds with a collection of mattresses that are all made by hand in Devon by our parent company, Naturalmat. The mattresses are a perfect fit for our beds, and cover all budgets.
All our mattresses offer great value for money, fantastic levels of comfort, combined with high levels of workmanship using the finest natural and organic materials.
“I would like to take the opportunity to say how absolutely fabulous our new bed is. As you know we spent a long time looking all over the place for both a bed and a mattress but eventually found Cornish Beds and with your help we finally chose the perfect bed for us and the perfect mattress to go with it.”
