Their design makes your bed appear like a beautiful wooden sleigh, making it a perfect centerpiece for your bedroom furniture set.<\/div><\/div><div class=\"rank-math-faq-item\"><h2 class=\"rank-math-question\">When Was the First Sleigh Bed Made? <\/h2><div class=\"rank-math-answer\">Sleigh beds became popular in the Empire Style (early 1800s) in France and the United States. Although they didn&#8217;t officially originate until the 19th century, the ancient Greco-Roman era inspired the design.<\/div><\/div><div class=\"rank-math-faq-item\"><h2 class=\"rank-math-question\">Are Sleigh Beds Popular?<\/h2><div class=\"rank-math-answer\">Our sleigh bed sales have increased about 250% since the beginning of 2024.

We&#8217;ll get into the various types, but they also come in several different furniture styles to accommodate your decor!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Sleigh Bed Styles<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Sleigh-Beds\/cat\/702?Style=Colonial%20American\">Colonial American<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Sleigh-Beds\/cat\/702?Style=Contemporary\">Contemporary<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Sleigh-Beds\/cat\/702?Style=Farmhouse\">Farmhouse<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Sleigh-Beds\/cat\/702?Style=Formal\">Formal<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Sleigh-Beds\/cat\/702?Style=Mission\">Mission<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Sleigh-Beds\/cat\/702?Style=Rustic\">Rustic<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Sleigh-Beds\/cat\/702?Style=Transitional\">Transitional<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now let&#8217;s take a look at the different types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"wood-sleigh-beds\">Wood Sleigh Beds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Solid wood is our specialty at DutchCrafters. You can get them with solid wood or upholstery, but our beds always have solid wood construction underneath. These bring a uniquely beautiful look but still match the rest of your solid wood bedroom furniture. They can fit nicely with contemporary or rustic themes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The solid wood construction can give some of them the most regal presentations. Some look so classy they make Santa look unqualified to take the reins.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Amish-Louis-Philippe-Euro-Sleigh-Bed\/p\/4591\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"655\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-6.png\" alt=\"Euro Sleigh Bedroom Set\" class=\"wp-image-25985\" style=\"width:500px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-6.png 850w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-6-300x231.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-6-768x592.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Marco Euro Sleigh is an elegant addition to this bedroom suite.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"upholstered-sleigh-beds\">Upholstered Sleigh Beds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sleigh beds are a very popular choice to get with upholstery. Upholstery adds a modern touch to the timeless look of this solid wood style. Upholstery on the headboard can add padding for extra comfort if you want to sit in bed and read a book. <strong>Tufted headboards<\/strong> are also a very popular option for this bed style, adding textured patterns to the headboard.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"598\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-7.png\" alt=\"Sleigh Bed with Upholstered Headboard\" class=\"wp-image-25986\" style=\"width:500px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-7.png 850w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-7-300x211.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-7-768x540.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"storage-platform-and-platform-options\">Storage Platform and Platform Options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On most of our bed frames, you can add a storage platform with under-bed drawers for out-of-sight storage. You can also add a plywood platform or extra slats to make your bed a platform-style bed, which does not require a box spring. Platforms are a popular option with sleigh beds.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"258\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9.png\" alt=\"Sleigh Bed Platform Options\" class=\"wp-image-25988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9.png 650w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-9-300x119.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Example of platform options from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Amish-Heavy-Distressed-Canyon-Creek-Sleigh-Bed\/p\/45674\">Miriam Sleigh style bed frame<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pros-and-cons-of-sleigh-beds\">Sleigh Bed Cons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For any significant furniture decision, it is always worth making a pros and cons list. There are some things to consider before deciding if a sleigh bed is right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"con-its-big-and-heavy\">Con: It&#8217;s Big and Heavy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no doubt these beds are aesthetically pleasing, but a part of what makes them so gorgeous is that they are very heavy and take up more space around the curved headboards and footboards. Make sure you have enough room to accommodate a sleigh frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"con-sleigh-footboards-can-make-changing-sheets-a-challenge\">Con: Sleigh Footboards Can Make Changing Sheets a Challenge<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, not all sleigh beds have high footboards. Our Amish builders can work with you on custom orders to ensure your bed fits your liking. However, the standard look has a curved headboard and footboard, giving it a sleigh-like appearance. The high footboard can make changing the sheets slightly more complex.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Amish-Handcrafted-Edna-Heirloom-Sleigh-Bed\/p\/58224\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-10.png\" alt=\"Edna Queen Size Sleigh Bed Frame\" class=\"wp-image-25989\" style=\"width:500px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-10.png 900w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-10-300x206.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-10-768x528.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/Amish-Handcrafted-Edna-Heirloom-Sleigh-Bed\/p\/58224\">Amish Edna Sleigh<\/a> has a beautiful wooden bed frame that surrounds the mattress at the ends but also covers part of the sides.
