Beds

Choosing the right bed

If we’re lucky, we spend at least a third of our lives asleep. That means purchasing the right bed is more important than simply choosing what looks good. At OPA Living, every bed we make is handcrafted in Great Britain by skilled craftspeople, so you can rest well knowing you’re sleeping on a high-quality and supportive bed. 

Read on to learn more about our beds range and the answers to some of our frequently asked questions.

Materials and fabrics

Our beds are available in nine different materials: 

Luxe velvet – Soft to the touch with a deep, opulent finish, luxe velvet lends both comfort and polish to your bed. The subtle sheen shifts as the light moves through the room, and its resilient weave holds up well in rooms you use every day.

Bouclé – You'll know bouclé the moment you see it, thanks to its iconic looped, nubby fibres and their irresistibly snug feel. Rich in texture and personality, it earns its place in pared-back, minimal interiors as a real statement piece.

Linen – Light, breathable and easy-going by nature, linen carries a relaxed charm that sits happily in traditional and modern homes alike. Those soft creases are part of the story, giving your bed a lived-in warmth as it settles into your space.

Palermo – The tonal variation of palermo chenille gives this fabric a distinctive look, with its woven finish adding understated texture to your bed. It’s also as easy to clean as it is stylish.

Kobi – Blending tactile velvet with linen's natural, organic look, kobi lands somewhere between cosy and understated. The lightly textured weave keeps things looking chic, while its hardwearing finish handles the demands of day-to-day life.

Mythica – A gently slubbed weave gives mythica its character, paired with a plushness that feels indulgent. Lovely to touch, it makes for a bed you'll happily lie in on a light Saturday morning.

Olympia – Taking its cue from the natural look of linen, olympia has a crisp finish with a gentle texture. Its quiet simplicity pairs easily with most decor schemes and can give your room a contemporary edge.

Luxe cord – Luxe cord reimagines classic corduroy for modern homes, pairing cushioned softness with signature raised ribs. It brings warmth and character without sacrificing a refined/ modern finish.

Fernando – A tight, tidy weave gives fernando its versatile look, backed by the durability that everyday living demands. Its low-key finish slots comfortably into any interior.

Colours  

At OPA, we love a light and bright bed that can fit any bedroom aesthetic, but we also stock bolder colours like khaki, mustard, marine, and claret.

Other elements to consider 

Size – Whether you’re looking for a double bed, a more spacious king-size bed, or the ultimate in luxury, a super king bed, you’re sure to find the right fit with OPA Living.

Most of our beds can be assembled on delivery, so you don’t need to worry about fitting a fixed bed frame through your doorways and walkways. However, it’s important to get your tape measure out and ensure the final product will fit comfortably within your space. 

Beds are built to fit standard-sized mattresses, so total base and frame dimensions can vary depending on the style and level of fabric padding.

Headboard - Measuring the width, depth, and sleeping height of a new bed is essential, but make sure not to forget any statement headboards too. If you have low or angled ceilings, we recommend measuring your walls to ensure your chosen design’s headboard can fit comfortably.

Maintenance – Whether it’s snacks, drinks, or make-up, it’s easy to drop things on your fabric bed and stain the upholstery. To keep your new bed looking its best for longer, invest in one of our care kits. 

Bedside tables - So, you’re looking to buy a new bed, but what about the rest of the room? From side tables to wall art, you can complete your interior makeover with OPA Living.
