Chesterfield pleated headboard above a low upholstered foot.

The Althorp is the traditional Chesterfield treatment in its plainest form: a generously padded pleated headboard, a low upholstered footboard, and no wings to widen the footprint.

Because the footboard is low, the bed doesn't visually close off the end of the room the way a matching-height foot does. In a smaller bedroom that difference is the one that decides whether a Chesterfield bed fits or dominates.

Specification

  • Chesterfield pleated headboard
  • Low upholstered footboard
  • Fabric or diamanté button choice
  • Generously padded throughout
  • Small Single through to Super King

Suits: Smaller bedrooms wanting the Chesterfield look without the bulk.
