Bed_wh

The BED_WH is a handcrafted bed frame constructed from solid teak wood and woven water hyacinth. Measuring 215.00 centimeters in width, 93.00 centimeters in height, and 162.00 centimeters in depth, the frame accommodates standard mattress dimensions while providing a distinct structural profile defined by contrasting organic textures.

The primary load-bearing structure utilizes solid teak timber, selected for its natural density, high oil content, and inherent resistance to moisture and decay. Teak components form the foundational legs, side rails, and interior support beams, ensuring structural rigidity and long-term dimensional stability under standard mattress weights. The visible wood surfaces exhibit a natural grain pattern with medium-brown tones, finished with a clear protective coat that seals the pores without masking the material’s botanical origins.

The headboard serves as the primary visual and tactile focal point of the furniture piece. It incorporates a sturdy teak perimeter frame enclosing a panel of tightly braided water hyacinth fibers. Water hyacinth, a rapid-growth aquatic plant, is harvested, dried, and hand-woven into a continuous basket-weave pattern. This natural fiber introduces a pale, sandy-beige coloration and a coarse, tactile surface texture that contrasts with the smooth, planed surfaces of the surrounding teak wood. The weaving technique employs multi-strand cords pulled under tension, preventing sagging and maintaining structural integrity across the 93.00-centimeter height of the headboard.

The overall dimensions of 215.00 cm width and 162.00 cm depth establish a standard double or queen-sized footprint, leaving appropriate clearances around mattress edges for standard bedding placement. The bed frame stands at a height of 93.00 cm at the headboard, while the footboard and side rails maintain a lower profile to facilitate ease of access. The clearance beneath the side rails provides space for air circulation underneath the mattress platform, mitigating moisture accumulation.

Assembly details include heavy-duty metal brackets recessed into the interior corners of the teak frame, connecting the side rails to the headboard and footboard. These mechanical fasteners utilize threaded bolts and barrel nuts, allowing for repeated disassembly and reassembly without stripping the wood grain. The internal slat system rests on integrated wooden ledges fastened directly to the interior sides of the frame, distributing downward weight evenly across the footprint of the structure.

Maintenance requirements for the BED_WH correspond to its natural material composition. The teak elements require periodic dusting with a dry microfiber cloth and occasional application of natural teak oil to preserve moisture resistance. The water hyacinth sections benefit from gentle vacuuming using a brush attachment to remove dust particles lodged within the woven fibers. Direct exposure to prolonged sunlight or high-humidity environments should be avoided to prevent fading of the water hyacinth and minor expansion or contraction of the teak joints. The combination of dense tropical hardwood and resilient aquatic plant fibers results in a structurally autonomous bed frame weighing within standard furniture thresholds for residential bedroom interiors.
