The Worlds Most Expensive Luxury Beds.

You probably don’t give much thought to your bed. Except for the time when you selected and purchased it and those times when you choose new bedding; it’s likely that you rarely give it a thought other than when you crawl in after a long and tiring day for some much needed rest. Maybe you own a modern platform bed, or a luxury bed like a four poster or brass bed, or maybe even a unique round bed; but the odds are, no matter what type of bed you sleep on each night, that you didn’t pay a huge amount of money for it. But, what if you had the opportunity to purchase some extravagant luxury beds, one with every imaginable offering, how much would you spend (we are imagining, so money and budget are not an issue)? Would you spend £50,000 or would you go even higher, maybe even as high as £3.3 million?
Now these may sound like random figures, or you may be altogether shocked that there are beds that cost that much. The truth is – these are not random figures, but, in fact, the price range of the most elegant beds in the world. Let’s explore a few of these luxurious and lavish beds.

Starry Night Bed
We’ll begin ‘modestly’ in the extravagant and luxury beds with the Starry Night Sleep Technology Bed by Leggett and Platt, priced at only $50, 000 (about £30,000).

Want to make your mattress comfier and last longer?

Have you ever wanted that best nights sleep but still don’t seem to ever have it? Or the perfect mattress that moulds itself to your own body? Or a mattress that responds to your body heat and weight? Is your current mattress a high standard one but just isn’t giving you the comfort you need? If you answered yes to all of these or most then we have the answer for you!

Memory Foam Mattress Topper

We now supply memory foam mattress toppers, meaning that you can keep your current mattress but add extra comfort to it by purchasing one of our mattress toppers. This will allow you to protect your mattress as well as allow you to get the best nights sleep.

Mattress toppers enhance any bed, not only can they protect and prolong the life of your mattress but they give an extra layer of comfort that can enhance and deepen your nights sleep allowing you to sleep all night long like sleeping beauty.

Memory foam is polyurethane with additional chemicals increasing its viscosity and density. It has an open-cell structure that reacts to body heat and weight by ‘moulding’ to the sleeper’s body, helping to relieve pressure points and preventing pressure sores etc. If the density is higher, the memory foam will generally have better compression ratings; meaning it softens in reaction to body heat, allowing it to mould to a warm body in a few minutes. If the density is lower, then the memory foam will be pressure sensitive and mould quickly to the shape of the body pressing against it, then returning to its original shape once the pressure is removed.

Our memory foam mattress topper is made from visco-elastic which creates a weightless, floatation effect for the sleeper so you’ll think you’re sleeping in a dream land. The full body profile, no matter what sleeping position you are in, is supported properly and maintains the natural alignment of your spine. They are especially recommended if you have decubitus or a back disorder as memory foam has proven effective in the treatment for both of these problems.

Other than the new memory foam mattress topper we sell other mattress toppers which are available in poly cotton, lambs wool and hi hair. All of our mattress toppers can be made to fit any bed, all you need to do is ask us if you can’t find your size.

Our poly cotton filled mattress topper is of an excellent quality filled with polyester fibres, so they are ideal for those who suffer natural fibre allergies. It makes a great comfort layer with excellent rebound and padding properties and it is encased in a poly cotton waffle cover which is made with a 200 thread count.

The lambs wool filled mattress topper is filled with naturally soft lambs wool that regulates breathability, moisture and temperature control in the bed by removing excess heat and moisture which all helps towards a deep, rejuvenating sleep. It is also cased in a 100% organic cotton cover.

Our hi hair filled mattress topper is made from the highest quality horse tail hairs which won’t break or lose its natural flexibility. The horse tail hair are combined with the lambs wool giving the topper extra spring and recoil, giving long lasting durability as well as warmth and comfort leaving you as snug as a bug in a rug.

Now you have no excuse to say that you don’t know what a mattress topper is, what filling is the most luxurious, or you can’t find the correct size for your bed; because now you have read our information you’re all clued up. You know that we sell a variety of fillings for our mattress toppers and can make them to any size you require.

So why not go ahead and treat yourself to a top of the range memory foam mattress topper or if it doesn’t sound like the one for you take a look at the other varieties we have available and have the chance to sleep like a baby once again, you definitely won’t regret it.

Choosing the best filling for your duvet to suit you perfectly!

When it comes to choosing the perfect duvet there is a lot to think about and it can be a confusing experience. Whenever someone mentions tog ratings, thread count or different filling types to you, how do you respond? Just with a confused look on your face? Well don’t worry because that’s why we are here; many people don’t understand all of the technical terms to a duvet however it’s all very simple once you know about it.

First of all, you have your tog rating, which is basically how warm the comforter is; these can range from 3 tog up to 13.5 tog. As you can probably guess, the lower tog rating means it is more suitable for those hot nights in summer to keep you cooler and the higher tog rating is best in winter time keeping you toasty warm wrapped in your duvet.

Then you have all of the different fillings, the main types of filling are hollow fibre, micro fibre blend. duck feather and down and goose down. All of these suit different people and certain filling are more luxurious than others.

Duck Feather And Down Duvet

Hollow fibre duvets are filled with 100% polyester hollow fibre and have a 100% cotton cambric cover giving it a soft touch and meaning it gently wraps around the body for great comfort. These types of duvets are easy to wash at home and don’t need as much care and are priced cheaper than others meaning they are good for families or people on a budget.

Micro fibre blend duvets are a little more upmarket than the hollow fibre and are made with a filling of 90% polyester and 10% Lyocell with the cover at 55% modal and 45% cotton. The filling gives a down-like feel to the duvet and its provides cushioning softness and comfort and is very lightweight. This type of duvet is breathable which means it is great for people who range from being too warm and too cold when sleeping, as it regulates the body to it’s optimum temperature throughout the night.

The next best filling for a luxurious duvet is the duck feather and down; this is the most basic natural filled duvet which is cheaper than goose down. It consists of 90% duck feather and 10% duck down with a 100% cotton cambric cover with a 233 thread count. This type of duvet isn’t the lightest of all but because of that it allows you to get that cosy ‘tucked in’ feeling.

If you want the most luxurious duvet then a Hungarian goose down or Canadian snow goose down duvet is for you! This is the best filling. The Canadian snow goose down is the most luxurious of any duvets, as it is filled with 100% Canadian snow goose down, giving you the highest quality in every way. It has a thread count of 310 and is a soft, fluffy duvet with superior qualities. Whereas the Hungarian goose down duvet is the 2nd best as it is filled with 90% Hungarian goose down and 10% fine feather. It is also lightweight (that much that some people say it’s like sleeping under a fluffy cloud) and long lasting as is the Canadian snow goose and it is naturally breathable.

Due to the higher qualities of the duck feather and down and the goose down duvets they need to be cared for specially. it is recommended that you seek specialist cleaning to provide the best care; this will allow your duvet to last longer. If cared for properly then they can last up to 20-30 years, definitely worth the money!

We even supply these luxury duvets in large sizes for emperor beds. An emperor duvet is a large duvet made to fit a larger bed, usually around 6’6″ to 7′ beds, what can also be known as a super kingsize duvet. They are stocked in a wide range of tog ratings starting at 3 tog going up to 13.5 tog, the 3 tog, 4.5 tog, 6 tog and 9 tog are all connectable and can be combined to make an ‘all seasons’ large duvet cover.

So why not go and take a look at our range of duvets now that you understand all of the technical terms. A variety of our duvets we supply are from the Surrey Down Company and The Fine Bedding Company; all of the duvets are available in a range of standard and bespoke sizes, ranging from long single duvets to emperor duvets, tog ratings and fillings; if you are unable to find what you are looking for on the website, give us an email via the website and we will be happy to give you a quote. We aim to compete with our prices and if you happen to find one cheaper elsewhere we can price match at the point of purchasing with proof from you of the competitive price.

Bed Linen: The Flat Sheet

The Flat Sheet
Custom Flat Sheets

Remember Goldilocks and her adventures with the Three Bears? She broke into the bears’ home, ate their dinner, rested in their chairs, and finally fell asleep in the bed of the Baby Bear. Wonder if it had anything to do with the sheets? I’d be willing to bet she was sleeping in a custom made bed with a fitted sheet that stayed on the mattress and a flat sheet that was the proper size.
Flat sheets, also known as “top sheets” are exactly that–a sheet that lays on top of the fitted sheet covering the bed mattress and you sleep between the two. Of the two types of bed sheets available, the flat sheet is the more versatile as it can be used as a bottom sheet in addition to its normal purpose as a top sheet. Like fitted sheets, they are available in single, double, king, or super king sizes. A super king size flat sheet fits a 6′ 6″ bed quite nicely.
Beds in sizes other than those mentioned above are classified as “outsized.” They are usually custom made and can be either larger than a super king bed or much smaller than a single bed. You might be able to use standard flat sheets on some custom beds, but this, too, can present problems. If the sheet is too small, you won’t be able to tuck it in properly, meaning you will most likely find yourself sleeping on a bare mattress! If the sheet is too big, that could also create uncomfortable sleeping conditions in addition to making for a very sloppy bed! Neither is an acceptable option.
Fortunately, you can have custom sheets made for any size bed. They will look great, fit beautifully, and be more apt to stay in place. Custom bed sheets can be made in a number of fabrics, from flannel to silk, and are available in a wide array of colours.
Before placing an order for custom made bed sheets, it is of the utmost importance to accurately measure the mattress length, width, and height. You will want to make sure that there will be enough fabric to tuck under the mattress to keep the sheet in place.
When making the bed, start with placing the fitted sheet on the mattress, smoothing it out as much as possible. Then, the top for flat sheet is added. The wide hem of the sheet is placed at the head of the bed. If there is a design on only one side of the hem, place the sheet so the design is facing down toward the mattress. Spread the flat sheet over the bed, keeping the length of sheet hanging over the sides as even as possible. Tuck the bottom edge under the mattress and make hospital corners.
Place a blanket over the sheet. The top of the blanket should be placed approximately 8″ from the top of the sheet. Tuck the bottom edge of the blanket under the mattress and make hospital corners for it. Now, fold the top edge of the flat sheet over the top edge of the blanket. The finished side of the flat sheet is now showing. Place the duvet over all, add pillows, and you’re done!
Please remember that when you order custom made sheets, they are created one at a time to your specifications, so be sure to allow extra time for your order to be processed. It will be well worth the wait when you sleep in your perfectly made bed with sheets that fit. Like Goldilocks, you’ll know that your bed is “just right.”

Where Can You Find Custom Made Fitted Sheets?

If you have a standard size bed, your bed sheets should be easy to find. But what if your bed is a little different?

Custom Fitted Sheets
Custom Fitted Sheets can fit any size

The Basics of Bed Sheets

In its most basic form, bed sheets are rectangular pieces of cloth that are used to cover your mattress. In many places around the world, two sheets are used. The sheet that covers the mattress is referred to as a “bottom sheet.” A second sheet, laid on top of the mattress cover, is called a “top sheet” where you can then sleep comfortably in between the two sheets.

Sheets are typically available in two varieties–flat or fitted. The flat sheet is simply a rectangular piece of cloth, hemmed around the edges to stop fraying. You can use it either as a bottom sheet on the mattress with the excess folded in. Or as a top sheet to wrap around you and get snug once you’re in bed. If you go for a fitted sheet it has a singular purpose, that is it is made purely to go on the mattress. Our sheets are cut and made with four corners to help attach to the mattress, we then add elastic all around the hem to help it grip the mattress and stop it moving on the mattress.

Fitted sheets are commonly available in sizes to fit standard mattresses. These being:

  • Single
  • Double
  • Queen
  • King

walk into any superstore or high street bedding shop and these are the sizes you will find.  Although occaisionally you may come across Super King or California King size beds, if your lucky.

Bespoke Size Sheets

So if you have a bespoke or non standard bed, or you have an adjustable bed, what do you do? You’ll find it difficult to buy ready-made bed sheets for these types of beds because the sizes vary so widely. Luckily, with the rapid expansion of the internet and online shopping it is possible to find small businesses (like us :D) who can make bed sheets to any size. These Flat & Fitted sheets can be specially made to fit large or extra long beds, extra deep mattresses, or adjustable beds.
A Custom size bed sheet will be cut from the roll to whatever size you need. We make them in a variety of fabrics:

  • Poly Cotton (200 Thread Count)
  • 100% Egyptian Cotton (200 Thread Count)
  • 100% Egyptian Cotton (400 Thread Count)
  • 100% Egyptian Cotton (1000 Thread Count)

You can have any of the above in a wide range of colours. As mentioned before, our fitted sheets have the added bonus of elastic all the way around, which is especially helpful with adjustable beds. That means the sheet will not only fit properly, but will actually stay on the bed when it moves. We also add French seams resulting in a long lasting, high quality sheet.

Make sure you get your bed size right

It is important you don’t guess or estimate the size when ordering a bespoke size sheet, you might end up with an ill fitting sheet that will end up wrapping round you in the night. To ensure you receive a sheet that fits perfectly you MUST measure the mattress. Simply measure the mattress length from top to bottom; then the width from left to right across the widest part of the bed, and finally, the mattress depth. Record each measurement. It might make measuring easier if you have someone help to hold the tape measure. Also, when measuring be sure to keep the tape measure as flat as possible so you can be as accurate as possible.

Remember, when ordering custom made sheets, that it does take time for us to make them to your specifications.
In the end, though, the short wait will be worth it. You’ll be sleeping on a perfectly made sheet that stays in place while you sleep.

How do I wash & Protect My Duvet?

A duvet needs a Duvet Cover
Duvet Covers are great at looking after your duvet.

Look after your duvet with these handy washing and duvet cover tips.

Now that you’ve found the perfect duvet or quilt, it’s important to know how to properly care for it. Like any investment you want to get the most benefit out of your purchase. Proper care and a good duvet cover will prolong its usefulness with the result being that you will realize the benefits over many years to come.

Washing your duvet

The duvet should be cleaned according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Always read the label and follow the directions. Today, there are duvets that can be machine washed and dried. These are usually made with a man-made fillings of some sort. It’s best to use a commercial washer and dryer for this purpose because duvets are bulky and may, simply, not fit in a home washer or dryer.

Naturally filled duvets, such as Goose Down or Duck Feather, are the more difficult to clean. Again, they are usually too bulky for most home washers, and using a tumble dryer on a high heat can damage the filling (feathers and down deteriorate when exposed to heat.) If you look around online hand washing your duvet or quilt in a large sink or a bathtub is one suggested solution.  This issue then arises of how to dry it as air drying might be problematic if you don’t have the room to hang it up.

Duvets must be thoroughly dried because damp filling can mildew and mold and no one wants that to happen! It’s best to have your duvet professionally dry cleaned or professionally laundered. The good news is, that if you properly care for the duvet, professional cleaning will rarely be necessary. Many manufacturers recommend a professional cleaning at least once every five years. But, that requires proper care.

Find the Right Duvet Cover

So, how do you protect your investment? What’s the best way to care for a duvet? More good news! It’s easy. The best, most cost effective, way to protect your duvet is to use a duvet cover.  I’m sure you will know what this is but for those who don’t it’s basically two pieces of fabric stitched together on three sides (obviously, there’s a bit more to it, but you get the idea!). The cover slides over the duvet, keeping it protected from dirt, stains, rips, and tears. These covers come in a wide selection of styles, fabrics, colors, and designs. They are available in a range of standard sizes, as well as custom made sizes to fit any duvet.

Speaking of fit, it’s a good idea to take down the measurements of your duvet when you first receive it. This way, when you’re shopping for a cover, you can be sure you’re purchasing the right size. I’ve personally had an experience with a cover that was marked as a king, but wasn’t even close!

A fun benefit of using a duvet cover is having the ability to change the decor of your room with a simple change of the cover. You can easily change the way a room “feels” without completely redecorating. Go from dark winter colors to light, bright springtime in a snap.

Unlike the duvet, the majority of covers can be put into the household washer and dryer along with your regular sheets and pillowcases. However, to be on the safe side, be sure to read the label before cleaning the cover. There are some synthetic fabrics, such as rayon, that won’t do well in the dryer. It’s best to know that beforehand.

So, simply put, get yourself a couple of beautiful duvet covers.  Its probably the best and cost effective way of looking after and protecting your duvet.

Bed Covers – The Duvet

A duvet is a cover for a bed, much like a comforter. There are a few differences, however. The primary difference is that a duvet is made to be used with a cover of some sort. Much like a pillowcase covers a pillow, duvet covers go over the actual duvet to protect it and to match the bedroom decor. The cover is easily removed for cleaning or changing.

A duvet is constructed much like a quilt–two layers of fabric with a filling in between the layers. The three layers are then stitched together. Unlike quilts, however, a duvet is constructed to be used as a single bedcover. It replaces multiple layers of sheets, blankets, quilts, etc. that are used to keep warm while sleeping. Unless one is living in an extremely cold climate, a single duvet should keep a sleeper toasty warm in the winter months. In addition, the single layer results in quickly and easily making the bed every morning.

Duvets are made of a variety of materials. The outer shell is usually made of cotton, although silk or silk/cotton blends are sometimes used. A high thread count in the outer fabric  is preferable, as the fine filler can make its way through the threads of  lower-count fabrics.  So, the higher the thread count on the outer fabric, the better. Keep in mind, however, that a high thread count does not necessarily mean high quality. If the manufacturer of the fabric uses very fine threads, the fabric won’t be as durable and the duvet may suffer wear and tear in a short period of time.

The filler of a duvet is probably the most important factor you’ll want to consider. It should be natural, whenever possible. The filling is what provides the warmth of a duvet. Natural fill is always preferred, as it allows for breathability and warmth. A variety of synthetic fills are also available for those who suffer from allergies. Natural fillers include feathers, cotton, silk, or even wool. The best filler, however, is down. It tends to be lighter and fluffier while remaining breathable. Down also maintains a high Tog rating.

The Tog is the rating used to determine the warmth of a duvet. The higher the number, the warmer the duvet will be.  If the climate is warm, a Tog rating of five or less would be appropriate. If the climate is colder, a Tog higher than six is advised.

Another consideration is the actual construction of the duvet. Two of the many choices are box or channel construction. In box construction, the seams create a checkerboard of filled pockets. This keeps the filling firmly in place. In channel construction, the evenly spaced seams run the length of the duvet allowing the fill to move within the channels. So, for instance, if you get cold feet, you can move more fill to the bottom of the duvet to keep them warm.

A duvet is a wonderful, versatile investment. With proper care, it can last for many years. To help maintain the life of your duvet, it is advisable to use it with a cover. There are many styles, colors, and designs to choose from. The most difficult decision when choosing a duvet, might just be picking out the right cover!

As the Net Grows, so do Beds!!

Large Four Poster BedThe days of the standard size bed and bed linen are fading fast it seems.

Consumers are now presented with more choice than ever when it comes to nearly everything they purchase online, this is no different when it comes to home furnishings and now it seems even more so with your choice of bed. Think back (if your old enough that is…) to the 70’s, 80’s and even the 90’s, most home furnishings like the traditional 3 piece suite came in in 1 style and 3 colour options (if you were lucky). It was the same with beds, every bed store would typically have a set of divan bases in single, double, king, superking, from these you chose a style and a colour and you were on your way. Anyone who wanted something a little different, a wrought iron bed or an adjustable bed, had to get out and about and seek out a specialist shop, making sure their pockets were deep enough to pay the extra for a ‘specialist’ bed.

Well those days are quickly becoming a distant memory, the advent of the internet and e-commerce has blown open the furniture and bed market to the one thing that every customer loves….choice! This growth in the market seems to fly in the face of the school of thinking that certain markets will struggle to sell on the internet, home furniture and textiles are one of these markets where ‘touch and feel’ are seen as one of the main selling factors, but this looks to be having less of an effect when online companies can offer no quibble return policies and even free delivery.

With beds it seems like the number of sites has been growing steadily as opposed to an fast expansion as with the case of electronics and other small easy to ship products, but now almost any type of bed and mattress available at the touch of a button (or at least a search of google). The choice is now so great that beds can be made to fit any room in the house, where in the past a standard double bed may have been to big for a room, a four foot bed can be easily ordered from sites such as mattressman.co.uk, the mattress can be ordered in a number of designs and types and be delivered within a few days. Other niche bed manufacturers are now enjoying fantastic business because their products are so unique that there are being easily sought for on the web, businesses such as bedmill.co.uk and revival beds stock circular and four poster beds that can be custom made to any size!

With this expansion in choice of beds comes the obligatory expansion in the choice of accessories. Bed linens are now easily available in sizes to fit any type of mattress in a number of fabrics from standard poly cotton percale to top quality 400 count cotton. In turn other accessories need to be the right size to fit a particular bed so larger quilts have become available along with extra long pillows, all of which need the correct size duvet sets and pillow cases.

As online stores offer more choice in beds it seems the days of the high street shop and its limited stocks may soon be a thing of the past.
