The design

The Serpentine — sculptural by design

A sculptural upholstered end-of-bed bench with a distinctive flowing silhouette and concealed lift-up storage. An elegant combination of statement design and everyday practicality.

A bench drawn as one line

The Serpentine carries a gentle wave along both of its long edges, and the curve runs through the base as well as the seat, so the piece reads as a sculpted object from every side rather than a padded box. A soft, tailored top sits on a fully upholstered base that follows the same line all the way to the floor, with a fine piped seam marking where the two meet.

Concealed storage

The whole seat is a lid. Lift it and the base opens into a concealed storage compartment that runs beneath the bench: a place for spare bedding, cushions or the things a bedroom would rather not display. Closed, nothing shows but the curve.

Where it sits

At the foot of an upholstered bed the Serpentine gives the room a place to pause: somewhere to sit while dressing, a surface for a throw, and a low horizontal line that settles the headboard at the other end of the room. Beneath a window or in a dressing room it works just as well as a single statement piece.


Your fabric

Shown in a rich brown upholstery with a soft, matte surface. Choose yours from the Yorkshire Interiors fabric library, the same families and colours offered across our upholstered beds, so a bench can be ordered in the cloth of the bed it sits beside, or in a quiet contrast of your own. Naples, velvet, linen and bouclé are included in the price; the Premium range carries a £250 surcharge.


Made to order, guaranteed

Each Serpentine is made to order in 2–4 weeks and covered by our five-year guarantee. Delivery is complimentary.


Questions about The Serpentine

Is this an end-of-bed storage bench?

Yes. At 161 cm wide, 46 cm deep and 47 cm high it is drawn for the foot of an upholstered bed, with the storage compartment beneath the lift-up seat. It also sits well beneath a window, in a hallway or at the end of a dressing room.

Can it be upholstered to match my bed?

Yes. The Serpentine is offered in the same fabric families and colours as our upholstered beds, so the two can be ordered in the same cloth. Free swatches are available from the Fabric Atelier if you would like to see them together in your own light.

How long does it take, and is delivery included?

The bench is made to order in 2–4 weeks. The price includes complimentary delivery, and the bench carries our five-year guarantee.

How does the storage open?

The upholstered seat lifts as a single lid to reveal the storage compartment inside the base.
