Aiko bed

Product characteristics

The feet add a particular touch to this bed as they are cut at a 45° angle. This version without tatami is provided with straight beechwood slats but it's also possible to select curved ergonomic slats in multilayer beechwood. Both versions can be combined with a Futon or classic mattress. The Aiko platform belongs to the category of Arpel japanese beds
