Description

Heritage Collection

Experience the epitome of sleeping luxury with the Heritage 5000

A masterpiece of traditional design and modern innovation.

Handmade in the UK, the Heritage Collection represents the British Bed Company’s commitment to delivering high-end specification and impeccable craftsmanship.This is not just a mattress; it is a sleep sanctuary designed to offer the ultimate fusion of orthopaedic support and indulgent, natural comfort.

Uncompromising Construction

At the heart of the Heritage Collection lies a sophisticated system of 5000 individually encased pocket springs.

Engineered to operate independently, each spring mirrors the contours of your body, adapting instantly as you move.

This provides targeted support to every inch of your spine and neck, ensuring optimal alignment and significantly reducing aches and pains.

While the core offers robust support, the upper layers are pure indulgence. We have encased the spring system in a sumptuous blend of nature’s finest materials: Silk, Wool, Cotton, and Cashmere.

These premium fillings cradle your body, offering a cloud-like embrace that relieves pressure on joints.

The natural properties of wool and cotton act as superior insulators. They regulate your body temperature by wicking away moisture in the summer and retaining warmth in the winter, guaranteeing a fresh and dry sleep environment all year round.

The Heritage Collection is built to last.

The mattress is hand-tufted, a traditional technique that secures the luxurious fillings in place.

This not only reinforces structural integrity and prevents shifting but also adds an air of classic sophistication to the mattress surface.

To ensure you can utilize the full width of your bed, the Heritage features three rows of hand side-stitching and a reinforced border. This provides true edge-to-edge support, preventing that "roll-off" feeling and maximizing your sleeping space.

Designed for a long life, the Heritage is a double-sided, fully turntable mattress.

To make maintenance effortless, we have stitched robust turning handles to the sides, allowing you to flip and rotate the mattress to distribute wear evenly.

Integrated breather vents further promote airflow, keeping the core of the mattress fresh.Premium Pocket Springs: Individual springs for bespoke, orthopaedic support and zero motion transfer.
