Price History
Description
Featuring a gently winged profile and luxurious upholstery, the Elara velvet bed frame is soft in every sense. Available in a choice of colours, from eye-catching turquoise to tranquil grey, it can either make a bold style statement or transform your space into a soothing sanctuary. Elegant turned wooden feet complete the look, in a range of light or dark finishes.
Our Stylist Says
I’m a big fan of the Elara bed for its softly rolled head and footboards that bring a subtle sculptural feel without dominating a room. The neutral upholstery and slender wooden legs make it equally at home in a Scandi-inspired minimalist scheme, a pared-back contemporary space or a quietly elegant traditional bedroom. To style it, layer in pale linens and textured throws for a cosy yet refined look, then add a pair of simple brass or marble-topped bedside tables to echo the warmth of the wooden legs. A slim rug under the frame will ground the bed, while a couple of patterned cushions in muted tones introduce interest without overpowering the gentle curves of the design.

About Barker and Stonehouse
A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
