This bed has its eastern influences.  It is a low profile platform bed.  It is 18" off the ground to where the mattress starts.  It was originally designed to use a futon mattress, but any innerspring mattress will be sufficient.

The finish on this pieces is a deep cherry.  To achieve this I use several steps in the finishing process.  First I use a dye stain, usually a brown tone. This is a stain used on most production or assembly line furniture.  It dries in a matter of seconds.  This gives me the darkness needed for the finish, but leaves the wood looking too plain without depth.  I then use a regular wiping stain, which "pop" the grain. This highlights the the grain and keeps it from looking bland.  The clear coat that I use is a pre-catalyzed lacquer.  I apply this in two coat with sanding in between.  I thin the product very little if at all, to achieve a thicker more protective product.
