{"product_id":"belsogno-abbraccio-wingback-tv-bed","title":"Belsogno 'Abbraccio' Wingback TV Bed in Grey Velvet","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost headboards are a flat panel behind your head. This one comes forward at both sides and holds the pillows between its wings, so the top of the bed stops being a surface and becomes a place. The Italians have a word for what that does - \u003cem\u003eabbraccio\u003c\/em\u003e, an embrace - and it is a more accurate description of a wingback than anything in English. Inside the footboard, behind the same channel tufting, a television rises on a remote and disappears when you are done with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lift is motorised and remote-controlled, built for screens up to 55 inches and 40kg, with the mechanism, power feed and cabling routed inside the frame. No bracket in the plasterboard, no cable down the wall, no stand in the corner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat wings actually do\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree things, and only one of them is decorative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey cut side draughts, which matters if your bed sits near a window or in a period room with a cold wall. They block peripheral light, so one of you can read with a bedside lamp on without lighting up the other person's side of the bed. And on a television bed specifically, they give you something to lean sideways against - which sounds minor until you have spent two hours propped on an elbow watching a film, and realised there was nothing to rest against except a stack of pillows slowly migrating onto the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey also do the obvious thing: in a large room, a winged headboard stops the bed looking marooned. A flat panel in the middle of a big wall reads as furniture placed in a space. A winged one reads as a made bed, which is a different feeling entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilding them is the part that costs. Each wing is its own shaped and upholstered section, angled forward and joined to the main panel, and the channel tufting has to carry round that angle without the spacing jumping at the join. Get it wrong and the eye goes straight to the corner. Each is set out and hand-finished in our Liversedge workshop over a hardwood frame - which matters more on a television bed than an ordinary one, because a moving mechanism puts load through the footboard every day of its life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe footboard repeats the channels and closes with a soft rolled top over the screen housing, so the whole bed reads as one enclosed object rather than a headboard with a separate machine at the other end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes the Abbraccio work\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeep wing returns\u003c\/strong\u003e - shaped sections angled forward at both sides, with the channel tufting carried cleanly round the join\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePractical enclosure\u003c\/strong\u003e - cuts side draughts, blocks a partner's bedside lamp, and gives you something to lean against while the screen is up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotorised footboard TV lift\u003c\/strong\u003e - remote-controlled, for screens up to 55 inches and 40kg, fully concealed when down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChannel-tufted throughout\u003c\/strong\u003e - foam stacked in vertical sections from the base up, so the ribbing holds its shape rather than flattening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardwood internal frame and concealed cabling\u003c\/strong\u003e - the structural work that keeps a moving mechanism feeling solid and the room looking empty of wires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing your fabric\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Abbraccio is upholstered to order in any of our 15+ designer fabrics. The mid-grey velvet shown here is the most useful choice at this scale: dark enough that the wings read as depth rather than as bulk, light enough that an enclosed headboard does not make the room feel closed in. A very pale fabric flattens the wings visually - you lose the shadow that makes them read - and a very dark one turns the bed into a single heavy mass.
