Description

Inspired by the sparse beauty of Shaker dormitories at Hancock Village, MA, our bed is made from solid American Cherry or Black Walnut. A slotted dado joint for the headboard was designed for long-term strength and stiffness. At each post, we use steel surface-mount Häfele mortise-tenon brackets that create a strong, low-noise joint. The optional casters are loyal to the originals but with an added locked position for zero roll. In even the most contemporary setting, the bed's understated lines feel quietly timeless. To request a wood sample, please contact us.

Read The Design Story

The Roseland bed was designed to bring modest, restful lines to the bedroom. It has a gentle headboard ellipse and tapered legs, making it light on its feet.

Toolless Assembly

Bed assembly takes ten minutes. It arrives partially assembled with high-quality mortise-tenon fasteners at each corner. The headboard slots tightly into a dado joint that is exceptionally rigid.

Hand-Rubbed with Raw Linseed Oil for Zero VOCs

Every bed is finished in slow-drying, 100% pure linseed oil. This gives the bed an enduring, zero VOC finish that is also serviceable for life. Unlike veneered or heavily stained mass-furniture, if you ding this bed you can just sand it and re-oil it.

Care and Assembly

Minimal care is needed but hand-rubbing linseed oil every few years will only be to the bed's benefit

Mattress Compatibility

The Roseland bed's proportions work best with mattresses between 8.5 inches and 13.5 inches in thickness. It does not require a box spring: slats are 3" apart, and 2.5" wide.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where in the USA are your products made?

The Roseland Bed is made in Morgan, Bosque County, Texas, while the kitchen island is made in Stamford, NY.

Do you use only American wood?

Yes, everything is domestic. The platform bed is made with Black Cherry (Prunus Serotina) or Black Walnut (Juglans Nigra) and the slats are made from Poplar.

Do you run seasonal promotions?

We have not run any sales in the past and have no current plans to run any in the future. Our business is designed to be as efficient as possible and our prices reflect that. We offer a $75 credit for those who sign up to our newsletter.

Can I get a discount if I order multiple beds?

We offer a 15% discount on three or more beds. Please email us for a single use code.

What is the distance between the slats and how wide is each slat?

Each slat is 2.5" and the spacing is 3" between each slat. This makes the bed compatible with the vast majority of mattresses and their warranties.

How do I take care of the wood finish?

Linseed oil is a traditional finish for early American and European furniture. It protects the wood by penetrating the grain as well as forming a very thin, flexible layer. You can re apply every 5-10 years or as needed. If you ding your bed, you can just sand out the blemish and re-apply linseed oil.

How long does it take to "Dispatch" an order?

Unless otherwise stated, we'll usually dispatch an in-stock order within 3 days of order receipt. Please look to the top of the website for the most recent status updates.

How high would my mattress be from the ground?

The top of the slats are just under 16.5 inches above the ground - they sit inside of the support rails vs. on top of them, allowing us to bring the height slightly lower than you might expect from the design. A typical 10 inch mattress would have you sleeping at 26.5 inches.

How high are the top and bottom of the headboard from the top of the slats?

The top of the headboard is ~24.5 inches above the top of the slats. The bottom of the headboard is ~10.5 inches above the slats.

Is there a video of assembly?

Yes. It's hosted here.

What thickness of mattress is appropriate for the Roseland bed.

We recommend mattresses between 8 inches and 13.5 inches thick. Any thicker and the headboard will feel out of proportion.

Why is the bed more affordable than other domestic equivalents?

Roseland has a narrow, focused furniture selection that we produce in batches of 20-30 beds, instead of on the made-to-order basis that has become standard in domestic furniture making. The cost implications are material when you make 15 of the same headboards at once versus just one.

Why is Black Walnut more expensive than American Cherry?

American Black Walnut is more expensive on a board foot basis and it is also harder to get headboard quality yields. Our black walnut pricing is not a reflection of preference or quality - if you ask us, we actually personally prefer the cherry.

What is the weight limit for the bed.

The max recommended weight on the bed is 700lb including your mattress (this was recently updated).

How does the bed ship and how much do the packages weigh?

Your bed ships in 2-3 packages, with one package substantially larger than the others. The maximum weight package is a little over 100lb for a King size.

What is the clearance of the bed for under-bed storage?

Both the standard legs and caster legs give a floor-to-support-rail clearance of just over 13"
