How much is a good night’s sleep worth to you? That’s the question begged by the $50,000 price tag of the Vividus bed, manufactured by Swedish company Hastens. It may not look too spectacular here, but the Vividus boasts a solid pine frame as well as two mattresses shaped by “virgin steel” coils, hand-teased horse hair, cotton and wool. Not to mention it’s hand-assembled by someone who is not you–that alone has to be worth at least half the asking price, right?
If you’re still not sold, the bed carries a twenty-five year warranty, which as Gabrielle Birkner of The New York Sun, notes adds up to about $5.40 a day. That’s not so bad, especially when you consider that every Vividus includes a brass headboard plaque engraved with its proud owner’s name.
Ah, the luxury.
