Description
Our Berkeley kingsize bed frame is upholstered in a soft mink-grey velvet with vertical stitched detail across the headboard. It measures 1680mm wide, 2170mm deep and 1425mm high, giving you a generous footprint for a kingsize mattress. The tall fluted headboard rises well above the pillow line, and a chrome-effect surround traces the outer edge for a bit of shine. It arrives in two boxes and needs full assembly at home.
We chose a neutral mink-grey so this bed sits happily in a wide spread of bedrooms, from pared-back schemes to those with richer accent colours. The plush velvet reads warm rather than cold, and the fluted stitching adds quiet texture without shouting for attention. If your room leans towards greys, taupes or soft neutrals, this frame slots in without a fuss, and it pairs just as well with darker walls where the headboard height can hold its own.
The frame is built around a sprung slatted base, which flexes gently under weight and helps support your mattress night after night. The chrome-effect trim is a finish applied to the surround rather than solid metal, so please treat it as a decorative detail. The velvet is a soft-touch fabric with a vertical stitched face. To keep it looking its best, wipe with a damp cloth or work over it with a soft brush to lift dust and even out the pile. Avoid soaking the fabric or using harsh cleaners, as these can mark the velvet or dull the trim over time.

Frequently Asked
What is the frame covered in?
The frame is upholstered in a soft-touch velvet in a mink-grey shade, with vertical stitched detail across the tall fluted headboard. The fabric has a warm, plush feel and a neutral tone that works with a broad mix of bedroom colours and styles.
Is the trim real chrome?
No. The surround has a chrome-effect finish, which is a decorative silver-toned coating rather than solid metal. It adds a bit of shine around the headboard edge, so please handle it gently and avoid harsh cleaners that could dull the surface over time.
What mattress size does it take?
This is a kingsize frame, so it suits a standard UK kingsize mattress. The overall footprint measures 1680mm wide and 2170mm deep, so please check you have enough clearance around the bed before choosing your spot in the room.
How do I clean the velvet?
Wipe the velvet with a damp cloth or go over it with a soft brush to lift dust and keep the pile even. Avoid soaking the fabric or using strong cleaning products, as these can leave marks on the velvet or affect the trim.
Does it need building?
Yes. The bed frame arrives in two boxes and needs full assembly at home. The base uses sprung slats that flex under weight to help support your mattress, so follow the fixings order carefully when putting the frame together.
