The story

Floor to wall, like architecture

The headboard runs from the floor up the wall in one upholstered form, so it reads as part of the room rather than a piece placed in it. Solid oak, deep-stained, with chamfered edges and refined joints, frames the velvet.

Shown in the small scale Tora pattern, which draws you closer to the texture and detail. It is made for Super King beds and also comes in King and Double, or can be oversized against a smaller bed for a hotel-like effect.

“A calm, enveloping atmosphere.”

Can I see it before I buy?
