Natural wood bed

What is a rustic bed? The word rustic means simply made. Although the design may be simple, the end product is nothing but elegant! Using hand-select air-dried live edge wood slabs, the natural beauty of the wood shines through—a natural wood bed, commonly built from solid wood slabs with or without a raw edge. Natural wood is lumber, wood planks, or live edge wood slabs. However, laminated wood, such as plywood, and engineered flooring, whereas particleboard is not.

Wood Platform Bed Frames

One of the most popular rustic beds is a wood platform bed frame. This zen-style rustic wood bed marries rustic and modern. The clean lines of a platform bed combined with Burl wood or live edge wood are not only stunning, but functional. A floating wood platform bed features a low-to-the-ground frame supported by a centralized frame. This low-to-the-ground frame normally features 10″ to 12″ wide planks 2″ to 3″ thick.
