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.
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). This innovative bed is a smooth blend of technology and comfort that can monitor body movements and rhythmic breathing, help alleviate snoring, regulate its own temperature, and increase firmness to support sleepers by weight applied. If that isn’t’ enough, the bed features surround sound with headboard projector, internet connectivity, an iPod docking station and can store up to 400,000 songs. Want one?
Next is the exquisite luxury bed, the Parnian Furniture Sunset Bed. Artfully designed by Abdolhay Parnian and hand carved by artisans from wood, stainless steel and gold. This beautiful bed is offered with your choice of features including an iPad holder, charging stations for all your electronics, a pop-up swivel television, computer monitor case and numerous hidden compartments. Each one is uniquely custom designed, takes up to two years to complete and is priced at $210,000. Definite wow-factor!
Finally, let’s end our extravagant bed tour with the second most expensive elaborate bed in the world – the Magnetic Floating Bed – priced at £600,000. And yes, the bed floats on air 16 inches above the ground atop two opposing industrial strength magnets. It is held in place by four thin wires. It is described as wonderfully comfortable and perfectly safe for sleepers. It’s even safe for your electronic devices and credit cards, provided they aren’t under the bed!
