Billy Four Poster Upholstered
Keeping Brass decoration to a minimum, the Billy four poster is an unimposing straight-forward traditional but equally modern looking bed design with added luxury of upholstered headboard for that extra comfort.
The simplicity of the Billy design makes it an ideal choice for a single bed or child's bed. The elegance of the Billy Four Poster Upholstered bed brings a touch of class and character to the contemporary bedroom.
Hand cast at our Cornwall foundry and made with all the traditional fixings you would expect from an authentic re-production.
The Billy can be manufactured as a bedstead, bed surround, headboard, four-poster bed or as a bedstead with no foot end. You can order your Billy in any of our 9 colour options or in any colour not shown for an extra £100. If you prefer to have the brass top caps of your Billy Four Poster painted in the colour of your choice, please let us know in the "comments box" at checkout.
The headboard, shown, is upholstered in "Honeycomb Coal" by Zoe Glencross. The headboard can be upholstered in any fabric or your own fabric. To discuss bespoke fabric options, please give us a call on 01726 825182.
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.

Our mattresses are made by hand in a solar-powered Devon workshop with natural & organic fibres. Better for you, and the planet.
“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.”
