BED|STÜ wood bottoms begin with sustainably sourced Chilean pine from responsibly managed forests. Rather than being molded by automated machinery, each piece is shaped and refined by skilled craftspeople, preserving the natural character of the wood. The result is a handcrafted foundation that carries the same authenticity, individuality, and natural beauty found throughout every BED|STÜ style.
A Few Things Worth Knowing
-
No two BED|STÜ pieces are exactly alike. We use 100% vegetable-tanned leather that is hand-dyed using our own plant-based dyes, then finished by hand using proprietary techniques developed over time. Natural variations in color, texture, and markings are part of the character of the material—not defects. With wear, each piece develops a rich patina and becomes uniquely its own.
-
Yes, and that’s the point! Vegetable-tanned leather evolves with wear, exposure, and handling. You’ll see softening, darkening, and a patina that reflects how you use it.
-
Most styles do. Because we use full-grain, minimally processed leather, the material starts firmer and molds to your foot with wear. Comfort improves quickly after a few wears.
-
We use 100% vegetable-tanned leather, a traditional process that avoids harsh chemicals and preserves the natural character of the hide. Our leather is both chrome and formaldehyde free. It results in a richer look, more depth of color, and a material that improves—not degrades—with age.
