AMIDST the harsh reality of now-familiar economic gloom, here at the Original Bedstead Company, we’ve noted with interest a significant upturn in enquiries and demand for our very finest flagship designs.
At a time when we might have expected cash conscious customers to sit on their hands or opt for more mainstream Iron beds or Brass beds model, quite the reverse seems to be the case.
In fact we’ve been kept pretty busy, keeping up with demand for unashamedly romantic iron bedsteads from our range such as the Athalone, Walton and Alva.
And likewise, invitingly glamorous brass beds, such as the Ayr, Montrose,
Liddlesdale and Mandallay have been equally popular. These are all elaborately designed bedsteads where laborious and highly skilled production processes are reflected in the showroom price, and yet interest has never been stronger.
It is certainly a positively heartwarming trend and we’re quietly wondering if it is not, in some small way, an intriguing reaction to the global malaise as we choose to treat ourselves to a little night time pampering away from the doom laden headlines of the day.
We’ve always viewed the bedroom as something of a sanctuary. Somewhere to relax, recharge and retreat from the stresses and pressures of modern day living.
For many the bed is the ultimate escape.
A place of solitude or companionship, where we can escape from the melee to a haven of warmth, comfort and calm.
What better expression then of restrained good taste, than an enticingly enchanting and sensual bedstead to set the scene and mood. History tells us that when times are tough, a little decadence is never more appealing and we’re rather flattered to be a small part of it all….
In the face of gathering economic clouds and World Cup woes, let us not doubt legendary staunch British resolve!
