Behind the Willow Brass Bed – A Design Rooted in Elegance
The inspiration for our Willow Brass Bed arose on a sunny afternoon in Norfolk with a young Black Labrador, rehomed by our family. Initially shy and reserved, Willow quickly blossomed into a loyal and graceful companion, embodying both strength and elegance—qualities that have been intricately woven into the design of this exquisite bed.
With a name that signifies slenderness and grace, the Willow Brass Bed is a true reflection of its namesake. Its slim, elegant bedposts rise effortlessly, crowned with hand-turned finials, while hand-spun brass detailing lends a timeless refinement to its structure. The striking five-foot-tall headboard serves as a bold yet graceful statement, reinforcing its status as a centrepiece of craftsmanship.
Designed to be more than just a bed, the Willow Brass Bed offers the same warmth, comfort, and enduring charm as the companion who inspired it. A masterpiece of handcrafted British design, this bed invites you to experience true artisanal excellence—crafted to last for generations.

As the only carbon-neutral iron bed maker, working towards a sustainable future has been at the heart of our family company since we began. Although it does require a large amount of packaging to ensure that your bed arrives in perfect condition, with your help, we can ensure that all materials are reused or disposed of properly.
As standard, our delivery team will unbox and unbag your goods so that they can take any packaging away with them. If you’d like your goods to remain in their original packaging, please let us know before your delivery team arrives and be sure to dispose of the packaging appropriately.
It can be tricky to choose the right bed, especially when it’s guaranteed to last a lifetime. So, we offer you a promise: we’ll exchange your bed free of charge if you decide it’s the wrong size, style or colour within 30 days of delivery.
Our 30-day sleep promise covers our full range of handcrafted wrought iron beds. All that we ask is that you have seen your bed in person, in the correct style and colour, at our showroom. The bed must also be ordered from us directly.
