Hampshire
The Hampshire features simple decorative castings complimented by stunning brass adornments, top mounts, brass rails and solid brass balls.
Offering 2” side posts, and 4” centre spacer, this truly allows the silhouette of this cast bed to effortlessly flow into the surrounding decor.
There are no bolts or welds on a Hampshire bed. The Hampshire bed comes with attention-grabbing brass rail and solid brass caps, which adds oomph and elevates the style of the room. The top rail and caps can also be finished in the colour of your choice if the brass detail is not to your liking.
If you like the style of Hampshire, but prefer the top rail curved, check out our Hampton, Cotswold or Somerset cast iron bed designs. For all Brass look, visit our Brass Beds collection.
Hand cast at our Cornwall foundry and made with all the traditional fixings you would expect from an authentic re-production.
The Hampshire can be manufactured as a bedstead, bed surround, headboard, four-poster bed or as a bedstead with no foot end. It comes in a variety of sizes from single, double, kingsize four-poster beds. You can order your Hampshire in any of our 13 colour options or in any colour not shown starting from an extra £100. 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 bed sizes. As we craft our beds to order, just for you, so we can customize the size of your bed as required.

“It surpassed our high expectations in all respects - beautifully made and very solid - a joy to sleep on. Five star service throughout. Fantastic company to deal with from start to finish. Very easy communication with immediate response to any questions. The bed was delivered exactly when promised by a very competent and helpful crew.
