Spaldin's Soy Beds

Filed under: Decor, Green

Spaldin's Soy Beds
If you live in the NYC area, as I do, you are bombarded with radio and TV ads for Sleepy's, "the mattress professionals." Their never-ending self-promotion and "one-day sales" (until the next one, tomorrow) get on my last nerve. So why am I mentioning them? Because when I walked past a Sleepy's store last week I saw an ad in the window for the Spaldin Soy Bed. A soy bed? Really? I was intrigued.

Turns out that Spaldin, a Spanish company, makes its soy mattresses in four types: Aircell-Soy, Biocell-Soy, Sensitex-Soy, and Memory-Soy. All are made from biodegradable materials that are cultivated without pesticides and processed without harmful chemicals. Read more here.

Quality rest and environmental peace of mind are not inexpensive, however. While prices are not listed on the Spaldin site, this page at, ahem, Sleepy's, gives an idea of the price range of Spaldin beds. Original prices run from $1,400 - $5,000. As of this writing, Sleepy's has all four models on sale. Alas, green costs now but saves the planet for later.

Select Foam Grandis Mattress

Filed under: Decor

The Select Foam Grandis mattress is not the most expensive mattress we have seen but it does have some luxury features including a suede and a cashmere-wool blend cover. The Grandis is created from plush memory foam and talalay latex foam. The channel quilted, Cashmere pillow top of the Grandis is three inches thick and has two layers of memory foam. It sells for $2199 to $3899 depending on size.

Mantra Canopy Bed

Filed under: Decor

Bed canopies are not just for children's rooms or mosquito-ridden equatorial islands, especially not if they're shaped like the Mantra Canopy Bed. The bed's head board is made of wenghe wood and curves up elegantly over the base of the platform. It was designed by Mauro Bertame based on the notion of fusing the traditional warmth of a canopy bed with the more current designed aesthetic inspired by Feng Shui. The bed is sold as part of a bedroom suite that includes two nightstands and a matching dresser, both of which feature elegant curves that complement the bed. Price: $13,588.50.

5th Ave Bed

Filed under: Decor

The 5th Ave Bed is a plush, leather platform bed that comes with a set of interchangable back/head rests. It also includes two table trays. Arrange the headboards as pictured above and you have a lovely lounging area, complete with ample space for light and drinks. Move the backrests together, and you're ready for bed. Two pillows are included and the bed can come covered in suede or microfiber, if you prefer. The king size frame with high-quality smooth black leather is $3160.

Hollandia Brings $50,000 Beds To The U.S.

Filed under: Decor

How mch would you pay for a bed? The Hollandia company thinks that Americans will be willing to pay $10,000 to $50,000 for their sleep systems which are debuting in the U.S. The company has opened its first American retail location in Philadelphia and plans to open other centers in the Northeast.

Why are the beds so pricey? The company says that it is because the company has invested time and money to create the perfect sleep. The bed frame is made from hard-pressure laminates which are tougher than steel and impervious to corrosion or damage. The frame is topped by the Hollandia Vita Talalay Latex mattress which is comprised of breathable latex wrapped in special Aloe Vera fibers that offer soft comfort. The mattress has also been calibrated for maximum sleep satisfaction. A portion of the mattress called the 'Flexible Shoulder Zone' is designed to offer support for side sleepers. The beds are adjustable and have quiet motors that let you move the bed into a variety of positions.

Louis XV Pet Pavilion

Filed under: Pets

This Louis XV Pet Pavilion is only for animals who really deserve to live like kings. It is styled after an 18th century French commode (which we prefer to think of as just a little building, since it sounds a bit classier) and is hand-carved from mahogany and rosewood. It is liken with antique-style Newton Ferrers fabrics and the colors and patterns can be chosen to suit your own tastes. Customizations are available, if you need a larger or smaller bed than the 35" H x 27" W x 27" D standard, or simply prefer a custom finish. Price: $24,266.

Ralph Lauren Cube Bed

Filed under: Decor

This Cube Bed from Ralph Lauren Home will really take your bedroom to a new level. The bed has a leather-upholstered base, with headboard and footboard, and is framed in a brushed aluminum cube, a modern take on a classic four-poster. It also comes with a price tag of $44,995. It would go well in a very contemporary, masculine room, but if light and airy is your style, it's probably better to look at other bedding options.

Emiselene Bed

Filed under: Decor


A post on Trendir led me to discover the unique beds for sale through Europe By Net. They really like the Mantra bed which has a large curving canopy over it but I like the look of the Emiselene shown here. This bed's unique curving design conceals a storage space. It was designed by Luciano Dalmonego and a bedside table and chest of drawers are also available. The bed is made of cherry wood and comes with a fabric cushion roll (a leather roll is available for $342). The bed sells for $4,400.
