History of the Bed

Nothing, absolutely nothing, is more decadent when it comes to bedroom furniture than a leather bed. Long has it been the subject of awe and longing, leather beds have only recently become affordable for almost everyone. Back in the 80’s and before, a leather bed meant that you were a “player”, and that you were trying to be as masculine as possible. Now, however, having a leather bed simply means that you enjoy the finer things in life, and that you love the feel and the look of beautiful, supple leather.

The Carnigan Bed is a whole new level of leather beds. This is one bed that can be enjoyed by both men and by women, and is absolutely gorgeous. The headboard of the bed has a slight camelback design, with the leather designed in a quilted manner. The footboard is designed as the polar opposite and has a slight crescent shape to it, while still maintaining the quilted design that makes the top of the bed look absolutely amazing. This bed even has side rails on it, creating a very suave look indeed, no matter what types of fabric you pair it with. The perfect definition of comfortable bedroom furniture, it’s a must have in your room.

Created by Hillsdale Furniture, the Carnigan Bed is designed for anyone who loves the feel of genuine leather. When paired with light colored fabrics and pillows, you can create a very soft look to your room. Add some darker sheets and pillows, and you’ve got earth tones going on that can make the room feel very warm and rich indeed. This leather bed is easily affordable, and is available in both king and queen sizes, which makes it ideal master bedroom furniture. It is easy to put together, and it would be a great gift for newlyweds, as there is something both members of the couple can enjoy about it!
