Rattan King Bed Frames

Athens walnut pine cane king bed in a bedroom

A rattan king bed frame has woven rattan or cane panels set into a wood frame, usually in the headboard and sometimes in the footboard or the rails. Ours stand 36.2 to 56.25 inches tall and all ship by parcel carrier; seven of the nine need no box spring, and on the Athens the maker's listing contradicts itself.

Some panels are natural rattan or cane, others synthetic PE or PVC rattan: each product page names the material the maker lists. You will find walnut, natural, black and sand-washed finishes, a bed with two drawers, a tall mid-century cane headboard and one California king, the Redding. More wood frames are in our wood king bed frames.

Rattan sits among the eight bed frame styles in our guide, next to wingback, tufted and cloud.

The Capitola, with open cane panels in a sand-washed wood frame on slim brass-tone legs, is one of the ten beds on our mid century king size bed page.

The Avalon, Sanibel, Sarasota and Athens pair woven panels with a walnut-colored frame; compare them on our walnut king beds page.

Before you choose

Which rattan king bed for your room?

Walnut and warm wood

The Sanibel is walnut-finish pine with turned posts, round finials and rattan panels in both the headboard and the footboard. The Avalon has an arched headboard with a natural rattan panel and turned legs. The Sarasota is pine, in walnut or natural, with a woven panel headboard in PE rattan, and the Athens walnut pine with woven cane panels, 36.2 inches tall, the lowest here.

Natural, black and sand-washed

The Ojai is a pale natural wood bed with a woven rattan headboard panel and a band of the same weave along the rails. The Kailua is black-finished wood on slim tapered legs, with a PE rattan panel framed in the headboard. The Capitola is sand-washed wood with open natural cane panels in a 56.25 inch headboard, on brass-tone legs. The Redding, a California king, sets two woven rattan cane panels in a natural-finish solid rubberwood headboard.

With storage

The Naples pairs a rattan headboard with two storage drawers; the lowest priced here is the Athens. More drawer beds are in our king beds with storage.

Size

The king frames measure 78.5 to 81.25 inches wide and 82.8 to 90 inches long outside, against 76 x 80 inches for the mattress (the Redding, for a 72 x 84 inch California king mattress, is 74.8 x 87.99 inches), so they take little more room than a plain frame. Our room calculator checks the outside size against your walls.

Slats, box spring and weight

Seven of the nine carry the mattress on slats, so you skip the box spring; the Capitola is built for a box spring or a bunkie board, and on the Athens the maker's listing contradicts itself. Where the makers give a weight capacity, it is 500 to 800 lb. Check the mattress advice on each page: the Sanibel's maker recommends 8 inches or less, the Avalon's 8 inches, the Ojai's 10 to 12.

Delivery

All nine ship by parcel carrier in 1 to 3 boxes. Shipping is free to the lower 48 states and DC.

Rattan king beds: questions people ask

What is a rattan bed frame?

A bed frame with woven rattan or cane panels set into it, most often in the headboard. The frame itself is usually wood; on ours it is pine, rubberwood or another wood, as each maker lists it.

Is the rattan natural or synthetic?

It depends on the bed. The Avalon has a natural rattan panel and the Capitola and Athens cane panels; the Kailua and the Sarasota use PE rattan and the Naples a PVC rattan weave, a synthetic material. Each product page names it.

Do rattan king beds need a box spring?

Seven of ours do not: they come with slats. The Capitola is built for a box spring or a bunkie board, and on the Athens the maker's listing contradicts itself.

Which rattan king bed has storage?

The Naples, with two storage drawers.

What mattress thickness for a rattan bed?

Follow the maker of the bed you choose: 8 inches or less for the Sanibel, 8 inches for the Avalon and 10 to 12 inches for the Ojai. Other makers do not give a figure.

How much weight does a rattan king bed hold?

Where the makers give a figure: 500 lb for the Sanibel and the Sarasota, 600 lb for the Naples and the Avalon, 650 lb for the Ojai and 800 lb for the Kailua and the Redding.
