There are plenty of king-sized beds in the market, but rare is the bed that makes you feel like royalty. You will get the occasional mattress that is so luxurious you never want to get out of bed.

The bed and canopy has been lacquered, patinated and sponge batted using this ridiculous quantity of gold. You will find intricate gold leaf detail and the headboard is a work of art.

Chestnut wood forms the main structure, ash wood is used for the curving and cherrywood forms the edges of the canopy. For the fabric, Stuart Hughes and HEBANON zeroed in on Italian silk and cotton with no burn certification. Moreover, buyers can customize the fabric and the decorations.

The Baldacchino Supreme is one of those rare specimens that brings royalty within everyone’s grasp. Did I say “everyone”? I meant all those people who can afford to shell out £4 million (about $6.3 million) for a bed. Yes, that is how much this beauty of a bed costs. Moreover, it is a highly limited edition.
