Mahogany Hardwood Beds

Buying guide

How to choose a mahogany bed in Kenya

A solid mahogany bed is a long-term buy. It should fit your room, your mattress and the way you use the bedroom.

6x6 or 5x6?

A 6x6 bed gives two adults plenty of room and suits a main bedroom. A 5x6 bed, such as the solid mahogany 5x6 bed, fits smaller bedrooms and guest rooms. Measure the room and leave walking space on both sides and at the foot of the bed. Buy the mattress to match the bed size.

Pick a design that suits the room

• Classic: the sleigh design and the carved heritage design have curved, detailed head and foot boards.
• Simple and modern: the classic slatted frame and the geometric panel design keep clean lines.
• Soft headboard: the scalloped upholstered and curved tufted panel designs combine mahogany with a padded headboard.
• Rustic: the 5x6 live-edge design shows the natural edge of the timber.

Storage and net stands

If wardrobe space is short, the 6x6 drawer storage bed holds linen in drawers set into the base. In warm or low-lying areas, the 6 by 6 bed with net stands makes hanging a mosquito net easy. Add bedside drawers to finish the room.

Finish and colour

Mahogany ranges from reddish brown to deep, dark tones, and the finish changes how a bed looks in your room. Darker finishes feel formal and suit large bedrooms with light walls. Lighter, natural tones feel warmer and work in smaller rooms. The black panel bed comes with a matching bedroom set if you want everything in one finish.

Caring for mahogany

Dust with a soft dry cloth, wipe spills quickly and keep the bed away from strong direct sun and damp walls. Our mahogany care guide explains polishing and what to avoid.
