01777 869 669If visitors to our workshops remark on the sheer size and presence of our standard Ambassador bed, they’re lost for words when they see the splendid four-poster version.
It’s no surprise that this is one of the biggest beds we make. Not only are the dimensions of this bed impressive, but the build of the bed is equally substantial – a weighty four-poster bed made from a choice of solid oak or pine.
Most customers ask for this four-poster bed in super kingsize or wider—up to 8ft Caesar size. However, if you’d like something even bigger or if you need a special height, just ask. We’re more than happy to build a custom-sized four-poster bed to your requirements. We can even supply bespoke-sized mattresses and bedding.
In addition to a range of natural wood finishes, the Ambassador four-poster bed is also available in premium 150-200-year-old solid oak – our most popular wood choice.
