Single Bed Solid Oak frames with slats
These lovely old (1950’s) matching pair of solid oak bed frames are delightful. Great as children’s beds or use in smaller rooms as single guest beds. Potential to paint and make more modern or keep in original style. Excellent condition and they are made from solid wood and with heavy steel runners.
We had them for our kids and now they’re grown up, so no need anymore. We made the slats ourselves from old decking wood (these would originally have had wire sprung bases attached to the steel runners) and the slats worked well. All that’s needed is a mattress on the top. (We have 1 very old mattress available, which if you want you can have for free).
Prefer to sell as pair for $100 but would consider selling separately for $65 each.
Approx. Dimensions (inside)
910 mm Width
1900 mm Length
Pick up in Mount Eden. They are dismantled now, so easy to transport in a car.
PM me on 021 0855 0656 only if interested in buying. Cheers :)
