Bedroom furniture, sometimes called a bedroom set or bedroom suite consists of a group of furniture in a bedroom or sleeping quarters. Pieces of furniture referred to as bedroom furniture usually include: beds, wardrobes, dressers, chests, nightstands, armoires, vanities, trunks, and mirrors. There are also many variations of these pieces as furniture styles have changed through time and as individual manufacturers have put their own spin on them. Bedroom furniture is predominantly made of wood, but many bed frames are made of various metals as well. Bed frames include but are not limited to bed rails, foot-boards and head-boards. Foot-boards and head-boards are usually made up of a few materials including wood, leather, paint & other various fabrics. Steel or iron is usually used for bed rails. Bed frames are most commonly built with support for a head-board (sometimes the foot-board as well). Knock down fittings are usually used for locking in the bed rails and frames to the bed posts. Knock down fittings are very easy to take apart. A few types of knock down fittings include: * Hook with pin fastener: mortise slots are cut in a vertical manner * Hook with plate fastener: eye plates are used instead of pins * Bed bolts: bolts are drilled into the holes in bed posts for fastening Types of Beds Available * Air Beds * Bunk Beds * Cabin Beds * Canopy (Four Poster) Beds * Divan Beds * Feather Beds * Futons * Hammocks * Loft Beds * Murphy (Wall) Beds * Platform Beds * Sleep Number Bed * Sleeping Bags * Sleigh Beds * Sofa Beds * Space Saving Beds * Trundle Beds * Water Beds Chart of Bed Sizes Though the bed sizes explained in the following bed sizes chart may vary in different countries, cultures and even in different parts of the same country, the chart is an effort to provide standard information about various bed sizes.

This method involves the interlocking of two pieces of wood, usually at a right angle. More modern methods make use of materials such as MDF (medium density fiberboard) finished with a covering that mimics exotic and rare timbers. Man made materials such as these are often described as "The saviours of the rain forests" as they satisfy a need for quality and beauty without using the planet's valuable resources. simple:Bedroom furniture 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「bedroom furniture」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
