Frequently Asked Questions
What is a sleigh bed design?
The Dalia Bed features a classic sleigh bed design characterized by its distinctive curved or rolled headboard and footboard that resemble a traditional sleigh. This heritage style originated in early 19th-century French and American Empire furniture design and remains a timeless, elegant choice that adds architectural interest and sophisticated charm to any bedroom.
Is the slipcover really removable and washable?
Yes! The Dalia Bed's slipcover is completely removable and machine washable, making it exceptionally practical for everyday use. Simply unzip and remove the linen slipcover for cleaning whenever needed. This feature is ideal for homes with children, pets, or anyone who values easy maintenance without sacrificing style. The natural linen fabric becomes softer with each wash while maintaining its beautiful drape.
What material is the slipcover made from?
The slipcover is crafted from 100% flax/linen, a natural fiber known for its durability, breathability, and timeless appeal. Linen fabric has excellent moisture-wicking properties, stays cool in summer, and develops a beautiful, soft patina over time. The linen-like texture adds organic warmth and a relaxed, sophisticated aesthetic to the bedroom.
What is parawood and why is it used for the frame?
Parawood (also called rubberwood) is a dense, sustainable hardwood harvested from mature rubber trees. It's an excellent choice for furniture frames because it's strong, durable, and eco-friendly—utilizing trees that have completed their latex-producing lifecycle. The solid parawood construction ensures the Dalia Bed's long-lasting stability, while the turned feet showcase the wood's natural beauty.
What are the exact dimensions for each size?
The Queen size measures 66"W × 92"D × 48"H and weighs 136.91 lbs, perfect for smaller primary bedrooms or guest rooms. The King size measures 82.25"W × 92"D × 48"H and weighs 182.76 lbs, ideal for spacious primary suites. Both sizes feature the same 48" headboard height and 92" depth for consistent proportions and mattress compatibility.
What bedroom styles does the Dalia Bed complement?
The Dalia Bed's heritage sleigh silhouette and neutral cream upholstery work beautifully in traditional, transitional, French country, farmhouse, coastal, and cottage-style bedrooms. The classic design pairs elegantly with antique furniture, while the soft cream color and removable slipcover give it a relaxed, modern appeal that suits contemporary interiors as well.
How do I care for the linen slipcover?
For regular maintenance, vacuum the slipcover weekly with an upholstery attachment to remove dust. For deeper cleaning, simply remove the slipcover and machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Line dry or tumble dry on low heat. Iron while slightly damp if desired, though the relaxed texture of natural linen looks beautiful with minimal pressing. Always follow the care label instructions included with your bed.
Can I order replacement or additional slipcovers?
Yes! Because the slipcover is removable, you can contact our customer service team to inquire about ordering additional slipcovers in the same or different colors. This allows you to easily change your bedroom's look seasonally or have a backup slipcover while one is being washed—maximizing both style versatility and practical convenience.
Do I need a box spring with the Dalia Bed?
The Dalia Bed is designed to accommodate standard mattresses. Depending on your preferred mattress height and the bed's platform design, you may or may not need a box spring. For optimal comfort and proportions, we recommend a mattress thickness between 10" and 14". Contact our customer service team for specific recommendations based on your mattress type.
What is the difference between Broadway Dune and Broadway Coffee colors?
Broadway Dune is a soft, cream-colored linen that creates a light, airy, and serene bedroom atmosphere—perfect for coastal, farmhouse, or traditional light-toned décor. Broadway Coffee is a warm, rich brown linen that adds depth and earthy sophistication, ideal for creating a cozy, grounded ambiance in traditional or rustic interiors. Both options feature the same 100% linen fabric quality and removable slipcover functionality.
How difficult is assembly?
Assembly is straightforward and typically takes 2–3 hours with basic household tools. The bed arrives with detailed step-by-step instructions, and all necessary hardware is included. The solid parawood frame ensures excellent stability once assembled. The slipcover is installed after frame assembly, making the process manageable. Our customer service team is available to assist with any assembly questions.
Is the Dalia Bed sturdy enough for everyday use?
Absolutely. The solid parawood construction provides exceptional durability and weight capacity suitable for everyday use, dual occupancy, and active households. The heritage sleigh design has been proven over centuries as a structurally sound furniture form. The turned feet offer stable support, and the frame's quality craftsmanship ensures long-lasting performance.
Can the cream slipcover handle stains?
While natural linen is durable and long-lasting, light-colored fabrics do require some care. The removable and washable design is specifically intended to address this—you can easily remove and clean the slipcover when needed. For spot cleaning between washes, gently blot (don't rub) stains immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap. Treat stains promptly for best results, then machine wash the entire slipcover when convenient.
Is this bed compatible with an adjustable mattress base?
Yes, this bed is fully compatible with adjustable mattress bases and will work seamlessly with your adjustable base setup.
