Description
Our Soho king size bed frame comes upholstered in a dapple grey velvet fabric, giving the frame a soft feel and a gently mottled grey tone. It measures 1870mm wide by 2370mm deep by 910mm high, so it takes a standard UK king size mattress while the extra-wide base and full-height headboard give the bed a fuller footprint in the room. It arrives in three boxes and needs full assembly, so keep that in mind when you plan where it will sit.
This is a frame built for a modern or industrial-leaning bedroom, where the low, wide silhouette and plain velvet work well against pared-back walls and simple bedside pieces. The tall padded headboard gives you something to lean against when reading, and the generous base means the bed reads as the main piece in the space without much extra styling needed. It suits both larger main bedrooms and rooms where you want one strong focal point, and the grey tone sits happily alongside most bedding and wall colours.
The frame is supported by sprung slats, which flex under weight to add a little give and help distribute the load across the mattress. The velvet is a woven upholstery fabric rather than a natural hide, chosen for its texture and colour. To keep it looking its best, wipe the fabric with a damp cloth or go over it with a soft brush to lift dust and keep the pile even. The bed weighs around 70kg in total across its three boxes, so we suggest two people for assembly to make the build easier and safer.

Frequently Asked
What size mattress does this bed take?
It is a UK king size frame, so it fits a standard UK king mattress measuring 1500mm by 2000mm. The overall frame footprint is larger than this at 1870mm wide by 2370mm deep, so allow extra floor space for the wide base and the headboard when planning your room.
What is the frame covered in?
The frame is upholstered in a woven velvet fabric in a dapple grey tone, giving it a soft surface and a subtly mottled grey finish. This is a fabric cover rather than any natural hide, so you get the pile texture and colour of velvet throughout the base and headboard.
How do I clean the velvet?
Wipe the fabric with a clean, slightly damp cloth to deal with everyday marks, then let it dry naturally. For general upkeep, go over the surface with a soft brush to lift dust and keep the pile sitting evenly. Avoid soaking the fabric or using harsh cleaning products on it.
What are sprung slats and why do they matter?
Sprung slats are gently curved wooden slats that flex under weight instead of sitting rigid. They add a little give beneath the mattress and help spread the load across the base, which supports the mattress and can make the bed feel more comfortable to lie on.
Does the bed need assembly?
Yes, the bed arrives in three boxes and requires full assembly at home. Because the parts together weigh around 70kg, we recommend two people to handle and build it safely, working on a clear, flat area with the fixings kept to hand throughout.
