Bed Designs

We now have 18 different bed designs available in varying configurations.   Our bed designs were born out of what was known as the "austere" era -  gone was the extreme ornamentation of the Victorian Era and the wealth and luxury of the age of the Art Deco period.  The bold ornamentation of these periods was replaced with the simplicity of the post war austere period that was more simple and far less pretentious in design.   These less pretentious bed designs frequently filled our hospitals, military bases, shearers quarters and boarding schools throughout Australia.  Empire Beds has continued to modernise these basic cast iron bed designs with improved quality castings and finishes that provide a more broad based and modern appeal.   Whilst continuing to be steeped in Australian history, the injection of durable vibrant colours to our cast bed range now provides a more modern and sleek look that is suitable to all decors.

We have a standard bed range which consists of our most popular bed designs that are in constant production.    The balance of our range are our special order beds which are purely made to order and generally not held in stock.
