Strong American hardwoods and the time honored construction of our Amish craftsmen ensure a long-lasting bed. Our collection of California King Bed styles includes platform beds, sleigh beds, upholstered beds and more. From light, natural wood bed styles to rich, dark wood tones, you are sure to find the best California King wood bed frame for your space.
California King Platform Bed Options
When shopping for a California king bedframe, consider the type of base you prefer. Amish-made bed frames offer a variety of base options for your convenience. A standard bed frame includes a headboard, footboard, wooden siderails and slats with center posts to support a mattress with box spring. The slats and center posts of the standard base option sit lower to accommodate the height of a mattress with a box spring.
A California king platform bed frame is a popular alternative to the standard base style. Our wooden platform base includes extra slats, spaced approximately 2.75" apart. This eliminates the need for a box spring to support your mattress. The slatted platform is 15"-16" from the floor to the top of the platform, sitting higher than the standard base.
Another option for a California king platform bed frame is the addition of storage drawers into the base. Amish furniture makers offer three standard layout options for any California king wooden bed frame. The storage platforms allow clearance at the head of the bed for nightstands without impeding the drawer function. Let's compare the drawer layouts of all three options.
First, we offer a storage platform base with 2 spacious drawers on either side of the bed, with clearance from the floor approximately 6". This storage platform pairs well with a wooden headboard and matching tall footboard or low profile footboard. The drawers in this layout appear subtle, often barely noticeable with bedding.
Next we offer a siderail and footboard platform drawer unit combo. This type of California king storage platform bed features 2 drawers that extend from the footboard, with another drawer on each side. All footboard drawer units include a low profile footboard instead of a taller version. Bedrooms with larger walkways around the foot of the bed may prefer this option.
Finally, we offer an extra deep siderail drawer platform option for wooden California King bed frame styles. This platform includes 2 extra deep drawers on each side of the bed, that extend all the way to the floor. Extra deep drawers are perfect for storing seasonal bedding and blankets, coats and other bulky items. Bonus points for removing the need to vacuum underneath the bed!
All storage bed base options feature a solid platform, not wooden slats. This allows your mattress to set directly onto the base without needing a box spring. Small bedrooms or homes without lots of storage benefit greatly from beds with built-in drawers. Keep the clutter contained and organized with a California king bed with drawers.
Take the time to consider the style and look of drawers in your platform base. When you purchase a bed as part of a complete set, the style of drawers will automatically match the dressers and nightstands. Beyond basic wood and color options, choose the finish and style of knobs or drawer pulls. These small details create a cohesive room feel.
If you purchase a California King platform bed only, compare the drawer front styles. We offer flat drawer fronts and traditional, raised panel styles. Drawers may be overlay style to sit with a lip over the frame. Contemporary styles may feature inset drawers with flat fronts for a sleek, modern feel.
Solid Wood California King Bed Frame Options
The beauty of Amish-made bed frames is the ability to custom order in your favorite hardwood and color. All California king bed frames are available in Red and White Oak, Maple, Cherry, Hickory, Elm or Walnut wood. These durable, American hardwoods are tough and beautiful, each with unique wood textures and characteristics.
As you browse through our extensive gallery, compare the wood grain textures. Red and White Oak, as well as Hickory wood have a prominent wood grain that adds warmth to modern spaces. Maple and Cherry wood have a smooth, subtle grain with less color variation. Walnut wood has a fine grain texture and stunning natural color tones ranging from light tan to rich, dark brown.
Prices and color options range between hardwood types. Generally speaking Red Oak and Maple wood are the most affordable hardwoods. Red Oak bed frames include popular dark color options like Michael's Cherry or Fruitwood for a light, honey color. Maple wood California King beds are a popular option because of the wide range of colors available.
Pricier wood types including White Oak, Cherry and Hickory are available in select grade wood and rustic grade. Select grade Cherry and White Oak will not include any knots or sap streaks in the wood. Rustic grade hardwoods may include small knots, filled with a black epoxy or wood putty before finishing. With the inclusion of the sap wood, rustic grade also has greater color variation than select grade wood.
Many of today's modern homeowners love natural wood textures and imperfections. The inclusion of sap wood and small knots also greatly reduces waste in manufacturing. For this reason, we display all Cherry, Hickory, White Oak and Walnut as rustic wood online. Contact our team for pricing on any select grade wooden bed frame.
California King Upholstered Bed Options
Like the wooden bed frames, our California King upholstered beds include a variety of custom options. Handcrafted in Ohio by Amish crafters, our upholstered beds offer the same platform base options as wooden headboards. Browse our collection of durable upholstery options online and contact us to request fabric samples. Our Katelyn upholstered bed is a stunning fabric bed with a durable, hidden hardwood frame.
In addition to completely upholstered beds, you may consider a California King bed frame with headboard that includes upholstery. The modern style of the Hudson bed features a wooden bed frame with an upholstered headboard panel. This contemporary bed is a customer favorite in Walnut wood for mid century modern bedroom style.
California King Headboard for an Adjustable Bed Base
In addition to complete California king size beds, Amish furniture makers offer headboard only options for all beds. You may consider a headboard only to pair with your existing adjustable bed base or metal frame. Small bedrooms appear larger with a headboard only that mounts to the wall instead of a complete wood frame California king bed. Talk to our sales team to create the best California king headboard for your bedroom.
What is the difference between King and California King Bed Size?
The difference in California King vs King size beds is an important consideration when shopping for a new bed. Comparing mattress sizes, California king dimensions are 72" wide x 84" long. A standard king mattress is 76" wide x 80" long. When considering king vs California king, remember to add approximately 6" to the mattress size for a bed frame.
With a California King bed frame being 4 inches narrower and 4 inches longer, this is a great size option. Better suited for tall people, the extra length helps avoid your feet hanging off the edge of the bed or kicking the footboard. The narrow alternative to a standard king size is also a great option depending on your bedroom size and layout. Measure your bedroom carefully to determine which bed size will best fit the space.
If you have any additional questions as you choose between a king and California king, contact our team at Dutch Craft. Do you share your bed with a pet (or three) and need the extra width? Worried about overcrowding your small bedroom with a king size? Our sales team is happy to help you weigh the pros and cons of either type of king size mattress.
As you browse our collection, notice that there is no price difference in California king vs king beds. Our local craftsmen in Ohio build each bed from scratch, so California king beds are not a higher price than standard kings.
