This Arts and Crafts style Heals oak Letchworth single or child's bed dates from 1920. Constructed from dry oak in a warm brown timber colour, the frame comprises a headboard and a lower footboard, both detailed with vertical slats, square upright posts, and heavy cast iron side rail brackets. The uprights terminate in small metal casters, showing gentle wear across the timber surfaces and the metal hardware. The bed stands 81 cm high and 76 cm wide, with a depth of 112 cm, and includes side irons available at any length. Suitable for use in a child's bedroom or guest room, this bed frame integrates well into traditional country house interiors. The understated design relies on clean joinery and functional ironmongery rather than applied decoration or carving. The early Heals ivorine label is positioned on the base. The piece accommodates standard single bedding configurations depending on the fitted side rail dimensions.

FAQs

Arts and Crafts beds focus on functional design, exposed joinery, and vertical slatted construction, emphasizing natural wood grain over applied decoration.

Solid oak, ash, and pine were typically constructed with traditional mortise and tenon joints, original cast iron fitting brackets, and fitted metal casters.

Look for hand-finished timber surfaces, cast iron side rail brackets, maker marks or ivorine discs, and clean vertical spindle or slatted designs.

Pair the natural oak tones with neutral linen bedding, woven wool blankets, and plain walls to complement the clean lines of the Arts and Crafts aesthetic.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish twice yearly along the grain to preserve the timber finish and prevent drying.
