Modernist slimline sophistication

Our sleekest, low-profile bed base yet at just 12cm thick, the Ashford is raised off the floor on skinny, wooden corner legs. Recycled denim and organic wool are shaped around the FSC timber frame to give the bed a curvy, puffy silhouette which extends beyond the width of the mattress.

Available for upholstery in a range of fabrics - including our Organic House Linen and options from Romo, Kirkby and Colefax & Fowler - (or even a fabric of your choice!), the Ashford Base is the perfect sleek divan option.

Please note that unless otherwise specified, bed bases from a Small Double and larger come split in two (head to toe) as standard, for ease of delivery.

Very few bed bases are built the way we build them

Handmade in Devon, properly

We handcraft our bed bases in our Devon workshop using traditional joinery techniques which ensure they last a lifetime. Unlike most bed frames which are simply stapled together, ours are glued (using a non-toxic glue) and screwed for a much sturdier and longer lasting construction. And because we make everything ourselves, we’re always happy to accommodate bespoke requests like swapping the standard feet for something different.

The natural difference

Many of the same natural and organic fibres in our mattresses feature in our bed bases too. We start with FSC-certified timber (FSC® C185003) for the frame and layer on organic coir or recycled denim depending on the design. The result is a natural bed base, completely free of synthetic foam and chemical fire retardants, which will provide years of comfort.

Our fabrics

We have curated a collection of natural fabrics, featuring unique fibres like linen, wool and hemp, chosen not only for their look & feel, but also for the ethos & sustainability credentials of the mill itself. Using the fabric selector at the top of the page, you can order up to 5 free swatches which should arrive within a week.

A bed base for life

Many beds and bed bases today are flimsily put together and not made to last. As a result, millions end up in landfill every year – a terrible reality that never sat right with us. At Naturalmat, we do things differently. Not only are our beds and bed bases properly made and built to last, but when the time comes to replace or refresh them, our Bed for Life Initiative™ gives you three sustainable options:

    Superb Ashford base

    After a long debate to purchase a new base, we chose Naturalmat for our 160cm mattress. The range of colors was mind boggling but within 5 minutes, my eyes were set on a beautiful fabric. The showroom is vast and luminous. I was made to feel special by the staff and would have no hesitation in purchasing another bed from this 100% UK Company. Our bed is just a very Special addition to our bedroom.
