Bedstead No.1 Mattress

The Bedstead No.1 Mattress is designed to offer exceptional comfort, minimal maintenance, and long-lasting support. It is crafted specifically for use on wooden slatted bed bases. Exclusively designed by Wrought Iron and Brass Bed Co., this mattress combines natural, traceable materials and traditional craftsmanship to create a breathable, supportive sleep surface with sustainability at its core.

At the heart of the Bedstead No.1 lies a carefully engineered 3000-pocket spring system. Each spring moves independently to contour gently to your body, relieving pressure and promoting balanced spinal alignment throughout the night. This advanced support system is layered with hand-teased British wool- fully traceable to the farms we source our raw fleece from- and soft, responsibly sourced cotton. These natural fibres help regulate body temperature, wick away moisture, and provide year-round breathability—essential for undisturbed, healthier sleep.

This is a non-turn mattress, making it the ideal choice for those who value practicality without compromising on quality. Its tailored construction ensures lasting comfort and consistent performance, especially on wooden slatted bases.

The Bedstead No.1 is available in a selection of high-quality finishes. Choose from a classic, black and white tight-woven cotton stripe or luxurious soft-to-touch white cotton. For those seeking a completely natural sleep surface, we also offer a version in British-woven wool ticking, which is 100% chemical-free—a pure and honest option for those with allergies or a preference for untreated fabrics.

With a focus on ethical sourcing, low-impact materials, and skilled British workmanship, the Bedstead No.1 Mattress reflects our commitment to crafting sleep that feels good—and does good.

Care Instructions

To maintain the comfort and longevity of your Bedstead mattress, we recommend rotating it head-to-foot every two months. Regular rotation helps distribute wear evenly and minimises natural settlement—an expected characteristic of mattresses made with natural fibres like wool and cotton. Without rotation, you may notice uneven surfaces or impressions over time.

We also suggest using a breathable, natural mattress protector. This protects your mattress from moisture and marks while allowing it to maintain its natural airflow and body temperature regulation. For best results, remove any bedding or covers from your mattress periodically to let the natural fillings breathe.

When your mattress arrives, unwrap it and let it settle for a few hours. This gives the natural fibres time to relax and air out and allows any scent from the wool to disperse gently.

Keep your mattress clean by using a soft brush or vacuum with an upholstery attachment. In the event of a spill, blot the area immediately with a clean, absorbent cloth—avoid soaking or scrubbing to protect the natural fillings.

With simple care and attention, your Bedstead mattress will continue providing long-lasting support and natural comfort for years.

We build every mattress in our Bedstead Collection with the highest craftsmanship and natural materials standards. We offer a full 10-year guarantee across the entire Bedstead range to reflect this commitment.

This guarantee stands as our promise of quality. It covers any faults resulting from proven material failure or issues in workmanship but does not extend to general wear and tear.
