Our beautiful Beechworth bed base is a fresh combination of our Barossa base with your choice of either an Eden headboard (shelf-style), or an Esperance headboard (no shelf). Made from 100% Victorian Mountain Ash Hardwood
Eden Headboard: height of 700mm, with 110mm wide shelf
Esperance Headboard: height of 700mm, with two 110 mm wide top and bottom rails, with a 65mm intermediate rail
Solid 140 x 32 mm timber frame with L shaped recessed legs to avoid stubbing toes. The legs are bolted with 2 external bolts on each corner to join the frame together. Then there are 2 internal bolts to hold the legs in place providing a stronger construction without the leg protrusion you can sometimes get on conventional beds. No toxic glue is used anywhere on the frame.
The Australian hardwood slat timber we are using at present are 65 x 19 mm, spacing is approx. 65 mm. This is an ideal combination to support an organic cotton futon and provide proper spacing for the special Bonnell springs used in our organic cotton innerspring mattresses. The slats sit level with the side frame. This is done so that the mattress gets maximum airing, essential with ANY mattress, and easier to make the bed as you don’t have struggle with hands between frame and mattress. The slats come in three panels, to avoid movement and secure fit in the base. And with the King and Super King an additional centre slat is added for support.
The outer rims of the mattress also sit on the outer 32 mm thick base frame, thus covering the slats. Standard platform heights 26 cm and 36 cm, other height options available between 37 – 60 cm, and this incurs an extra charge. Please specify the height in cm when placing your order if choosing a custom height between 37 – 60cm. Please note that while in the main photo the bolts are not visible, the additional photo shows the bolts clearly.

ORGANIC FINISHES: Choose raw and sanded, or with natural plant and mineral based oil. We source our oils from Livos who have a range of other colours, you may choose to purchase raw and sanded and apply the oils yourself, here is a link to the Livos website: Livos.
PLEASE NOTE: Our slat panels on the base of the bed are supplied raw and sanded. The slats are not generally seen once bed linen has been added. We believe it’s better to leave the slats themselves natural and reduce the risk of the oil being transferred onto your organic mattress.
ASSEMBLY: Our beds are not made for mattresses to sit inside a lip, so when constructing ensure the side frames of the bed are used with the small space facing up towards the ceiling.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT TIMBER FURNITURE
Most conventional wooden furniture in Australia is not only made using toxic glues and finishes, but also must be fumigated before it can enter the country. Almost all timber furniture, cots, cradles, chests, bunks and beds sold in Australia are imported (or made from imported timber).
Organature® Hardwood Furniture is proudly MADE IN AUSTRALIA where we can guarantee the purity of the manufacturing process from start to finish. Locally sourced and sustainable Australian hardwood with NO Harmful chemicals, NO MDF, NO Chipboard, NO Chemical Paint and NO Toxic Glues are used during any part of the manufacturing process.
Assembly references (if required) are added by hand using a non-toxic permanent marker. These markers do not outgas when dry and are the safest option available
Note that the Katherine (low-rise or mid-rise) is the only recommended bed base for our HIGHLY CHEMICALLY SENSITIVE customers.
SLATS on all beds are glued, however the Katherine low-rise or mid-rise is the only style of bed with no glue used, and for a minimal extra charge, can have screwed slats (so no glue used at all!).
Footnote: Minimal PVA glue is used on all our bases and furniture; it is sandwiched between timbers, dries rockhard within 10 - 20 minutes after application and does not outgas.
