Sometimes, beds can feel incomplete (and less comfy) without a headboard as a focal point. Fortunately, adding a headboard is a quick and easy way to inject your own personal style into a space – and why not have fun while doing it with a bold pattern or funky shape?

For headboards that make a statement, read on to discover our top picks.

Dramatic wings

A winged headboard is comforting, classy and adds instant character.

The Buckler winged headboard stands tall, with statement wings to keep you cosy all night long. Making it easy to recline with a leisurely cup of tea in the morning, the Buckler is a sturdily-constructed full height headboard with a classic button quilted design inspired by signature Chesterfield sofas. In soft neutral grey, this headboard’s stand-out design features speak for themselves.

Comforting curves

A curved headboard makes your bed a calming haven to escape the stresses and strains of modern life.

Feminine and charming, a curved, upholstered headboard such as the striking Sealy Shard is sure to make a statement. This headboard evokes the feeling of nostalgic style, with its scalloped top edge and thick padded panels. With a range of versatile fabrics and colours available, you’re sure to find one that complements your bedroom décor.

Boutique glamour

Who doesn’t want to recreate the feeling you get when spending the night away in a glamorous boutique hotel?

Luxury accommodations often use a mixture of shades from the same colour palette, a slightly eclectic mix of furniture, and a wide range of textures to create a cosy but chic atmosphere. If you’re looking to up the glamour stakes in your bedroom, the Therapur Bracken is a true statement design. It features rows of button quilting inspired by classic Chesterfield sofas and has a sophisticated and grand look about it.

Make it a focal point

One of the main reasons to choose a headboard is to create a real focal point in your bedroom – it should be the piece of furniture that your eye is first drawn to when you enter.

We recommend choosing a headboard that perfectly encapsulates the style of your room, makes a statement, and conveys your personal taste. When it comes to size, we have headboards for every bed from super king to single, so don’t be afraid to go for an oversized or large headboard. After all, once your pillows and scatter cushions are in place, half of the headboard is usually covered. It also gives you extra space for propping yourself up for breakfast in bed.
