Description
The Berkeley double bed frame is upholstered in a soft mink-grey velvet with vertical stitched detailing across a tall fluted headboard. Measuring 1530mm wide, 2070mm deep and 1425mm high, it gives you a standard double sleeping surface with plenty of headboard height for comfortable sitting up in bed. A chrome effect surround frames the headboard, adding a bright edge against the plush fabric and drawing the eye upward. The fluted lines and neat stitching give the frame a soft, padded look that feels welcoming rather than heavy in a bedroom.
The neutral mink-grey tone sits easily in most bedrooms, whether your walls are pale and calm or darker and moodier. It pairs well with warm woods, brass or chrome fittings and layered bedding in cream, blush or deeper greys. The generous headboard makes it a good choice as the main focus of the room, giving you somewhere to lean while reading or relaxing at the end of the day. Because the colour is so easy to work with, you can restyle around it over time without the frame feeling out of place.
The base uses a sprung slatted design to support your mattress and add a little give underfoot as you settle. The frame arrives in two boxes, weighs 46kg in total and needs full assembly, so allow time and a second pair of hands. To keep the velvet looking its best, wipe with a damp cloth or lift dust with a soft brush. Avoid soaking the fabric or using harsh cleaners, and blot any spills quickly rather than rubbing them in, as this helps stop marks setting into the pile.

Frequently Asked
What is the bed frame covered in?
The Berkeley is upholstered in a soft mink-grey velvet with vertical stitched detailing on the headboard. The fabric has a plush feel, while a chrome effect surround runs around the tall fluted headboard to give a bright contrast against the softer tone of the velvet.
How do I clean the velvet?
Use a clean damp cloth to wipe the surface, or lift loose dust with a soft brush. Avoid soaking the fabric or using strong cleaning products. Blot any spills straight away rather than rubbing, as this helps stop marks setting into the pile of the velvet.
What size mattress does it take?
This is a standard UK double frame, so it suits a double mattress measuring 1350 x 1900mm. The overall footprint is 1530mm wide and 2070mm deep, which allows for the headboard and surround, so leave a little extra space when planning your room layout.
Does it need assembling?
Yes, the Berkeley arrives in two boxes with a total weight of 46kg and needs full assembly at home. We suggest setting aside enough time and having a second person to help, as handling the headboard and lifting the frame sections is easier with two people.
Is the base slatted?
Yes, the frame has a sprung slatted base. The slats flex slightly under weight to add a little give, supporting your mattress and helping air move underneath. This works with most standard double mattresses to keep your sleeping surface comfortable night after night.
