Our workshops Elite beds are an pure Swiss product, hand-crafted throughout on the shores of Lake Geneva. They have been contributing to the ‘Swiss Made’ reputation in manu- factured products since 1895. Our extre- mely sturdy beds are assembled with care and overlaid with elegance and expertise, providing generations of sleepers with guaranteed comfort.

The art of precision
Behind our shimmering decorative fabrics lies the discreet art of quilting: regular, precise stitch-by-stitch handiwork. The resulting perfection depends on this ini- tial, unseen and painstakingly detailed work. The time it takes us to make our beds ensures their comfort, long life, and impeccable finishes. In a globalised world, Elite continues to use local traditional knowhow to ensure production on a par with that of the very best fashion designers.

Loving attention to detail Whether they use ribbons, lace, buttons, cords, piping and gimp, flat trims or braids, trimmings are enhance and enrich bed decoration, create a contrast or alterna- tively to soften features. These ornamen- tal details create a powerful visual effect, giving the entire bed a refined, contem- porary touch – or perhaps a revisited clas- sic feel. Drawing on priceless heritage, today these thread-based assemblies use modern materials and technologies. Taking inspiration from today’s world, they are a thoroughly contemporary component.
Fabrics Although the art of upholstery and quilting has changed little over time, fabrics them- selves are constantly changing. In addition to cotton, wool, silk and velvet, amazing synthetic textiles and refined imitation leathers are now also available. Soft, pliable, easy-care high-tech micro- fibres,better-than-realfursandsuedes,and shimmering vinyl materials are opening up fresh prospects and with them, the promise of an infinite range of manufac- turing possibilities.

CLARA Decorative nails In addition to trimmings, decorative nails made from polished brass, brushed steel or silver provide an immaculate finish for overlaid items. The nail features a spherical head that’s fixed in place with an upholstery hammer – a finishing touch that calls for all the dexterity, patience and meticulous accuracy for which Elite craftsmen are renowned.

Bed skirt The removable bed skirt is fixed to the bed base using a Velcro strip. This length of fabric may be pleated or unpleated and is used to match the bed base to the rest of the bedroom decoration, in a touch of French-style chic that brings luxury hotels to mind.

Quilting is an ancient art, originally developed simply to hold fillings in place; today, it’s coming right back into fashion. Quilting is done in a diamond, square or rectangular pattern, with each section being made by hand. This specialised technique requires a high degree of expertise to ensure an impeccable finish. Elite draws on its longstanding tradition of quilting and the skills of its craftsmen, capable of working with a wide range of materials. Quilted headboards give an immediate impression of comfort and an overall appearance of grandeur. In use, this comfortable fabric feature is ideal for cosily leaning back whilst reading or watching a video. Quilted headboards

JADE Saddle stitching This range is characterised by a sporty chic style and straight, uncluttered lines. Saddle stitching is an especially elegant stitch for sewing together two pieces of leather stitching down the overlap. It provides the finished piece with plenty of stretch and strength whilst remaining completely flat. Recognisable by its slightly slanted stitch, it’s one of the hallmarks of Elite upholstery knowhow.

CHLOÉ The headboard is a piece of furniture with various uses. It allows for the inclusion of integrated lighting, with light-emitting diode (LED) technology now opening up a broad range of possibilities. Low- voltage LEDs give off very little heat and are extremely robust, making them very safe, and can be used to create coloured light. Bright, directional LEDs are used in reading lights, while LEDs installed toge- ther with a dimmer switch provide softer, gentler light and can even be coloured. Creating an atmosphere

Decorated with the quintessential Swiss theme of cattle descending from the mountains, this bed features a bedding box for storing duvets and a recess in the headboard serving as a bedside table. The off-white fabric with woven red motifs and borders is painstakingly adjusted to create two perfectly balanced decorative strips, enlisting all the attention to detail characteristic of custom work.

STYLES AND FINISHES
This catalogue of headboard styles makes no claim to be exhaustive: look at it more as offering a range of possibilities; an invitation to be creative. A line of nail heads here and a cord there can completely change the overall appearance of a bed. Using another colour for the
facing material can highlight a par- ticular shape and sometimes even make proportions look different. All of us here at Elite will be de- lighted to share our upholstery knowhow with you as you seek the balance that’s just right for you.
