The Colony Platform
Bed
offers simple handcrafted quality and beauty in solid American Ash.
Each carefully handcrafted solid American hardwood platform
bed in the Willowcrest line is
marked by exceptional quality and design details you have
come
to expect from an Abundant Earth line of furniture. The Colony
Platform Bed (shown above in a Golden Oak Stain finish),
with its tall Mission-style grace, is both
beautiful and durable at the same time. The Colony
Platform Bed and The Ellenville beds are essentially the sames beds
with the difference being in the height of their Mission-style
headboards. The Colony is designed
to
be used as a platform bed for a mattress or futon only (not for use
with a box spring). The Colony Platform Bed is available in Twin,
Twin XL, Full, Full XL, Queen, King and Cal-King sizes. For
extra
storage space underneath your bed, you may optionally add up to four
Willowcrest Underbed Drawers.
Our Willowcrest Platform Beds and Bedroom Furniture products
are made with the finest second-growth (no old growth) solid American
Ash. Ash is an exceptional hardwood for making furniture as it's harder
than Red Oak and almost as hard as Hard Maple and it presents a
beautifully patterned grain. Finish options include Unfinished, Clear
Coat, Golden Oak Stain,Walnut Stain and Cinnamon Stain are included at
no additional cost. Pure White Paint, Milk White Paint, Black Paint and
Espresso Tone are available for an additional fee. A Water-Based Clear
Coat is also available for an additional fee (The Clear Coat sample
shown below represents both the standard Clear Coat and the Water-Based
Clear Coat).
All
Willowcrest Platform Bed frames have durable metal-on-metal connectors
(includes wood plugs that may be installed over exposed screws) and are
easy to
assemble and
disassemble if necessary. The Full, Full XL, and Queen beds also come
with
a single center support rail running from the head to the foot of the
beds.
King sizes have two center support rails. Included with each center
support rail is a floor-to-support-rail leg for premium structural
integrity and durability--especially when using heavier mattresses such
as latex and memory foam.

The Colony vs. The Concord/Glenwild
Platform
Bed Legs:
You may notice some similarity
between The Colony
Platform Beds and The Concord or Glenwild
Platform Bed. In fact, they are somewhat similar beds with dissimilar
legs. The Colony
Platform Bed has flat panel legs like The Monticello and Fallsburg
Platform Beds. They are wider and thinner than
the The Concord/Glenwild
Platform Bed legs. Whereas, The Concord/Glenwild
Platform Bed has more traditional post-like legs. They are stubbier
(thicker) and not as wide as the The Colony
Platform Bed legs. The legs of both beds are extremely durable and
strong.
The
Colony Headboard:
You may purchase the stunning The
Colony Headboard alone for use with a standard metal mattress
frame with headboard attachment flanges. PLEASE NOTE:
The Colony Headboard is NOT designed to be used with any of our other
frames. It is not interchangable with other headboards on other wooden
frames

Slats: All
Willowcrest platform beds come with solid
hardwood slats
(typically of soft maple, ash or beech)
and are
held together with straps for easy assembly of your bed. Our
platform beds are made with futons (must be 6" thick or thicker) and
innerspring mattress requirements in mind and are built to offer
sturdy support to all. Our hardwood
slats are approximately 3" wide with approximately 2.5" of
space between each slat. If you are you concerned about
needing
extra support for your latex rubber or memory foam mattress or
thin futon, we offer an option to add a 3-piece hardboard (made of
lauan or hardboard) Flat Panel Slat Upgrade Kit to
lay over the slats. This kit will
allow you to create a platform virtually without any spaces or gaps for
your latex
rubber or memory foam mattress. Simply click on the "Add to
Cart" button on the bed of your choice
below and then select this option from the drop-down selections
provided.

Finish: Our
formaldehyde-free finish options include Unfinished, Clear Coat, Golden
Oak Stain,Walnut Stain and Cinnamon Stain are included at no additional
cost. Pure White Paint, Milk White Paint, Black Paint and Espresso Tone
are available for an additional fee. These finish options are both
formaldehyde-free and the VOCs dissipate rapidly after the finish is
applied. A low-VOC Water-Based Clear Coat finish is also available for
an additional fee. Please Note: For people with chemical
sensitivities (MCS) or odor sensitivities, we strongly recommend
ordering your bed unfinished and applying your own finish. Simply click
on the "Add to Cart" button on the bed of your choice below and then
select this option from the drop-down selections provided.

Willowcrest Underbed Drawers:
For
a unique storage option, you may add up to 4 Willowcrest Underbed
Drawers
to your Willowcrest platform bed order (2 will fit under each side of
the bed). Each of the Underbed
Drawers measures approximately 36-1/2"wide
x 20-3/4"front-to-back x 12" high and
sits on rolling casters and are not attached to the bed. Drawer fronts
rise just above the bottom edge of the side rail and help keep the
drawers aligned with the bed and keep the drawers from rolling back
(too far) under the bed. Each drawer also has a small opening along the
top middle which serves as a "pull" to reach into and pull the drawer
open. The picture on the right shows the standard Willowcrest
Underbed Drawers with Cinnamon Stain.
