Queen : Headboards

The creators of chess had it right: a queen can go anywhere she wants. At 60 inches wide rather than the king-sized 76 inches, queen-size beds offer the luxury of compact comfort for smaller, slumbersome bedroom kingdoms that would imprison a portly king. But even queen-sized noblesse must still oblige: in other words, a deluxe queen headboard should be the serviceable crown of your decor. The queen headboards at HeadboardSource.com are a virtual aristocracy of elegant and functional styles, from the traditional grace of tufted leather queen headboards to white-wash wicker queen headboards for her majesty’s cottage or rural estate.

With a style selection that ranges from regal to rustic, your choice is sovereign at HeadboardSource.com, where a modest reign is no less royal than an opulent one. Our queen wood headboards include sturdy, simple designs for country-style bedrooms or Mission and Shaker sleigh beds, as well as bookcase and storage headboards for modern platform beds. Tufted fabrics, floral prints, and bountiful color options make our queen upholstered headboards a contemporary decorator’s favorite. For a bedroom decor that’s inspired by splendors past, the French scrollwork and Victorian flourishes of our queen-sized metal headboards would provide the crowning—or canopied—touch.

Finding a headboard that’s fit for a queen is easy. But a headboard that’s fashionable for a queen? That one can be a little tougher. A bed is inevitably the focal point of a bedroom decor—that’s why they call it the bedroom. To avoid a visual clash of royal proportions, you’ll need to choose a queen headboard whose style, material, and other features can preside peacefully over a complicated kingdom.

Style: Large enough for bold headboard styles, but not so big that it overwhelms a bedroom’s dimensions, the queen bed is a great size for creative bedroom decorating. Our most popular queen headboards generally fall into two categories: queen metal headboards with arching frames and intricate decorative scrollwork, and queen upholstered headboards with tufted fabric—white is a popular color option.

Material: Wood has its patrons, but metal is our most popular queen headboard material, particularly in traditional or country styles. For a contemporary compromise, choose a queen metal headboard with straight vertical or horizontal lines, or whose arches feature ball accents rather than scrolls or floral castings.

Features: Queen storage headboards featuring open cubbies or bookcase shelves are space-efficient nightstand substitutes in small bedrooms, ideal for decorative displays.
