Released in 1997 for $40, combined with sheepskin & blanket in 2010 and priced at $70. Replaced with BeForever version in 2015.
Sleigh Bed: A New Mexican interpretation of a European favorite! This fancy sleigh bed has a curvy head- and footboard, and a lovely sage-green finish. For added comfort, there’s a soft mattress, called a colchón, and an almuada, a puffy bolster pillow.
Bed & Bedding: When night falls on the rancho, Josefina goes to bed and dreams about becoming a curandera, or healer, like Tía Magdelena, her godmother. Her beautiful bed set features: A solid wood bedframe with a distressed sage-green finish and a carved head and footboard. A soft mattress, called a colchon, and a plump pillow called an almohada, to ensure a good night's rest. A faux sheepskin for warmth on cool nights. A colorful, hand-loomed blanket with fringed edges tops off this traditional New Mexican sleigh bed.
I love this bed! I didn't get the bedding, instead I made bedding of my own so I can't speak for that, but the bed itself is darling. I called CS to make sure it was hard wood and they assured me that it is. It has such cute little details and I didn't notice until it came that it has a different foot and head board. It was also very easy to assemble using only 4 screws and 4 washers. Overall I give this bed the highest marks for complete satisfaction!
