Penobscot Arbor Storage Bed
The Penobscot collection is named after the great river that runs through the center of Maine and empties into the Atlantic Ocean. Before dams were placed on the river, ocean ships could travel all the way inland to Bangor, which was the lumber export capital of the world in the 1800's, to pick up their wooden cargo. There were so many boats in the river it is said you could walk from deck to deck to cross between the two cities of Bangor and Brewer.
The clean modern lines of this natural cherry storage bed lends a Scandinavian feel and is also reminiscent of Maine forests. Four large drawers make good use of valuable space for additional storage.

Built in cherry, this bed is designed to be used as a platform bed that only requires a mattress. The mattress rest on 5 - 1/2"Thick x 15 3/4"W plywood platform, supported by 1" x 1" cleats and support feet. The bed also features 4 storage drawers measuring 22"W x 23 1/2"D x 5 3/4"H.
Please note that when your new cherry wood furniture arrives, it may be lighter in color than the wood shown in the accompanying photo. New cherry wood is initially a pale, straw color and gradually darkens to a beautiful amber over time with exposure to light.
Built to Order
Standard build times are approximately 10-12 weeks, plus delivery.Platform vs. Standard Bed Frame
A Standard bed frame typically comes with 3-5 "slats", or pieces of wood that lay across the side rails of the bed frame. These slats are designed to hold a traditional box spring, or foundation, which sits under a mattress to provide support.
A Platform bed has either plywood or sufficient slats running down the length of the bed frame to directly support a mattress without the need for a box spring.
Platform beds typically cost a little more than Standard ones, but they avoid the need to purchase a box spring and allow for a more modern, lower profile look.
