Whether you’re drawn to a traditional wrought iron bed, the elegance of brass detailing, or the comfort of an upholstered metal bed frame, our collection of wrought iron bed frames and more is designed to suit every interior style. Each piece is handcrafted by skilled artisans and backed by a lifetime guarantee.
With options from single to super king, including customisable bed bases and bespoke sizes, our frames blend timeless beauty with enduring strength.
Our bed bases and divan frames are built to provide outstanding support for any mattress. Designed with both form and function in mind, these bases offer minimalist silhouettes or integrated storage — perfect for modern living.
Pair your base with a pocket sprung mattress for breathable, supportive sleep.
Crafted using British wool and other carefully sourced natural materials, our handmade mattresses are designed to deliver outstanding comfort, breathability, and support. The natural fibres promote excellent airflow, help regulate body temperature throughout the night, and naturally repel dust mites — making them an ideal choice for allergy sufferers.
Each mattress is thoughtfully made to complement our handcrafted bed frames, enhancing your sleep experience with layers of responsive comfort and durable structure. Whether paired with a wrought iron, brass, or upholstered metal bed, our handmade mattresses offer the perfect foundation for deep, restful sleep — night after night.
As Featured In
There’s not many with a story like ours…
Some of my fondest memories are of sleepy mornings at my grandparents’ home, climbing into their tall iron bed—a place filled with stories, safety, and love. Years later, as a mum, I wanted to recreate that same warmth for my children. But I couldn’t find a bed that felt the same—nothing had that soul or was made here in Britain…. So, I decided to change that.
Wrought Iron & Brass Bed Co. was born out of love, nostalgia, and a desire to craft iron beds that carry meaning. From our Norfolk workshop on the edge of the Sandringham Estate, our small team handmakes each bed using traditional techniques and British-sourced materials. We’re proud to be the only UK metal bedmaker certified by Made in Britain®.
In 2023, we launched our own range of mattresses—filled with pure British wool from dedicated farmers. Naturally breathable and sustainable, they’re made with care and intention, just like our beds.
This is more than furniture. It’s about creating comfort that lasts a lifetime. Our iron beds are made for the heart of the home—crafted for those who value tradition, beauty, and a place where real life happens.
Warmly,
Amanda Oldfield
Where Craftsmanship Still Counts
Quality is at the heart of everything we do. As the last independently owned British metal bedmaker, we handcraft each iron bed in our Norfolk workshop using time-honoured techniques and British-sourced materials built to last.
We’re proud to be the only UK metal bed manufacturer certified by Made in Britain® — a mark that stands for genuine local craftsmanship, responsible sourcing, and a commitment to UK-made quality. Every frame is made to order, cold-bent by hand, and finished with care by a small team who love what they do.
Unlike mass-produced furniture, our collection of iron and brass beds are never outsourced and never rushed. We use only certified British iron or brass and form every curve, weld, and joint with precision to ensure lasting strength and beauty.
We’re so confident in our craftsmanship that we offer a lifetime guarantee on every bedframe. Because we believe a bed should be more than just beautiful — it should be built to last a lifetime.
If you’re looking for a bed with real heritage, honest materials, and exceptional quality, our beds offer comfort you can count on, and craftsmanship you can feel.
Discover the difference of a bed made properly, and made to last.
