If you’ve done much browsing through log beds available online, you’ve probably discovered that no two are alike. Some are far more unique in design than others, and this can have a lot to do with the type of trees that were used to create them. Aspen furniture is probably the most ‘exotic’ of the various types of log furniture you can buy today. The snow load in the elevations where the materials are harvested definitely put an interesting twist in each log’s shape.
The Extremely Gnarly Aspen Log Bed is definitely eye catching, a magnificent piece of solid wood furniture that even caught the fancy of the producers of HBO’s True Blood show. It’s pretty simple to see why. If you catch episode 4 of season 8, you’ll find one of these fantastic log beds featured in one of the steamier scenes. Naturally, it won’t be an exact duplicate, since no two logs will ever be quite the same.
That’s TV you say? I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but there is some awfully high quality stuff found on most production sets. Its only the buildings that are a facade. A bed of this caliber is hand-crafted and this particular one is made to order every single time. Additionally, it is built to last a life time, a fact that is backed up by a lifetime warranty. Now that’s really saying something about the confidence of a company and the quality of their workmanship and materials. Mass manufacturers of ‘fine furniture’ offer no more than 5 years guarantee on wood furniture and frames.
Should you decide to purchase one of these handsome, unique pieces of aspen furniture, you’re getting a bed that was made just for you. The craftsmen actually go up into the mountains to hand pick the logs for your Extremely Gnarly Log Bed. Rather than pick any tree they come upon of the right size for the job, they look for only dead-standing trees with the right character to make your log bed’s design very charming and one-of-a-kind. What a refreshing change! Giving new, and long lasting life to something most would consider garbage or at best, firewood.

Consumer Rating
Priced from $1500
Home is all about dependable comfort, a kind of welcome you don't find anywhere else. If there is one thing you can count on to last, its solid wood furniture. The most comfortable furniture in every room was made to be lived on, rather than looked at. I've found the best investment and timeless charm comes from log furniture. The living on it just adds to its character, and it works in just about every decorating style. For me, rustic decor makes perfect sense and log furniture is part of that look, no matter where you live or play.
