Modern Italian beds

Italy is considered a trendsetter, one of the culinary and musical capitals. However, it is also famous for its furniture, to the creation of which the masters of this country are as creative and responsible as to everything else.

Furniture made in Italy is of good quality, elegant appearance, durability and reliability.

Most often, solid wood of elite species is chosen as materials, which affects the price and beautiful appearance. High-quality wood, for example, walnut, cherry, oak, processed in compliance with all technologies is free from defects - chips, bulges, cracks.

For the upholstery, which is often used in Italian beds for the headboard, expensive fabrics are chosen - velvet, leather, jacquard. In addition to wood, metal, plastic, glass are used for the production of beds.

Italian craftsmen and consumers are interested not only in strength indicators and long service life, but also in appearance. Therefore, they try to make furniture stylish, satisfying the main features of different directions - from classic to modern. The variety is great not only in styles, but also in colors, decor, among which there are carvings, drawings, inlaid with precious stones and metals. Even with a large circulation, attention to detail remains.

It is important for Italian manufacturers to produce beds that are comfortable not only for sleeping, but also for use in general. Thus, on transforming models, the most comfortable gas shock absorber that does not require efforts is found as a lifting mechanism. Many storage boxes are equipped with a bottom shift function, and the covers on the upholstery can be removed.

The main disadvantage is associated with the high cost of Italian furniture, especially elite furniture, which is often assembled by hand. It can increase if you order a bed directly from the manufacturer, and not through Russian distributors. Products of far from all Italian manufacturers are presented in the catalogs of furniture hypermarkets and online stores.

Basically, the length of the beds is 190-200 cm, and three main types can be distinguished according to the width of the products:

• Single-bed models. Their width varies from 80 to 100 cm, which is a sufficient indicator for both a child and an adult.
• One and a half sleeping models. These include beds with a width of 110 cm to 150 cm. Some of the most common indicators for Italian bedrooms are 120x200 cm and 140x190 cm. Furniture from 140 cm can accommodate two people.
• Double models. The width of such beds starts from 160 cm. The average is 180-190 cm. There are so-called King size models, the dimensions of which cannot be less than 200x200 cm. The king size bed is relevant only for large and roomy bedrooms.

Italian manufacturers are famous not only for reliability and love of versatility, but also for originality.

The vast majority of beds are equipped with at least drawers for storing linen.

In addition, the craftsmen are experimenting, creating models with built-in tables and side tables, lamps at the head, podiums around the frame. Beds with a soft headboard are in the greatest demand.

Classic furniture it is distinguished by bulky dimensions, solid appearance, rich materials, luxurious decor.Such beds often have columns, a canopy, filigree carvings on the legs and a headboard. Such models resemble furniture of the Middle Ages, but they are in great demand among modern consumers.

Relatively modest models, the main advantage of which can be called solid wood and decorative work on it, can be found at Cantaluppi Srl, Casa +39, Mario Villanova & C. S. r. l. More puffy models with a curly headboard, intricate carvings and soft multi-colored upholstery are offered by companies such as Bruno Zampa, Zancanella Renzo, Volpi, Barnini Oseo, AGM, Asnaghi Interiors, Signorini & Coco.

The opposite of the classics is in many ways modern stylesthat gravitate towards minimalism. Direction "eco" stands for simplicity and natural materials, modern for flowing forms, and high tech proposes to use all technological innovations in materials and finishes with might and main.

Many are disappointed with the high cost of Italian beds, especially from factories that produce luxury models. The price is also increased by the need to ship the product from one country to another. For many, the cost becomes a certain guarantor of quality and a way to identify a fake from intermediary firms. Many, seeing too low a price in Russian stores and catalogs, suspect deception.

Another feature is associated with the shipment, which will have to be reconciled to everyone who wants to buy beds from Italy.

When buying Italian furniture in local stores, you should carefully consider the choice, check not only the documents, but also the quality of the beds. Under the guise of elite products, unscrupulous sellers sell counterfeits, mostly bad ones. Beds can be made of a material imitating real wood, with defective parts and fixings.
