The Riviera Fan Panel Bed Headboard adds a subtle Art Deco feel to your bedroom. A broad, smooth padded panel sits in the centre, flanked on each side by padded channels that fan outwards from the base like rays of sunlight.
The fanned channels mirror each other on both sides, giving the headboard a balanced, symmetrical look, while the plain centre panel shows off your chosen fabric beautifully. It has a clean rectangular outline and generous padding, so it is comfortable to lean against, and the angled lines draw the eye gently towards the middle of the bed.
At 70cm high, the Riviera is designed to sit just above the mattress, so you see the full height of the design. It fits easily to standard divan beds using the wooden fixing struts supplied, or it can be fixed to the wall with the optional wall fixing brackets.
Please note: for wall fixing you will require appropriate screws for your wall and above average DIY skills.

Riviera, Artemis or Saffron?
Three of our headboards play with panels and channels in different ways. Here is how they compare:
| Headboard | Design | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Riviera | Smooth centre panel with fanned channels on each side | A subtle Art Deco look with a plain centre to show off the fabric |
| Artemis | Channels fan out across the whole headboard inside a padded border | A bolder, all-over Art Deco statement |
| Saffron | Broad centre panel with two slim straight panels on each side | A cleaner, more contemporary panelled look |

Built to last
Every Riviera headboard is made to order by our own team in Birmingham. Each one is padded with thick foam and hand upholstered, with each angled channel cut and shaped by hand so the fan on the left mirrors the fan on the right, and every channel meets the base in a neat, even line.
Choose your fabric
The Riviera is shown here in Grey velvet, Charcoal velvet, Teal Atlanta and Ivory Atlanta fabric. Velvets catch the light along each angled channel, which really brings out the fanned design. Choose from our Smooth Velvet, Teddy, Linen, Chenille and Wool fabric collections to match your bedroom. Colours on screen are a guide only.

Frequently asked questions
Will the Riviera headboard fit my divan bed?
Yes. The Riviera headboard is supplied with wooden fixing struts that fit standard divan beds. At 70cm high it is designed to sit just above the mattress, so you see the fanned channels rise from the base on each side.
Can the Riviera headboard be fixed to the wall?
Yes. Optional wall fixing brackets can be added when you order. For wall fixing you will need appropriate screws for your wall and above average DIY skills.
What sizes is the Riviera headboard available in?
The Riviera headboard is available in 2ft6 Small Single, 3ft Single, 4ft Small Double, 4ft6 Double, 5ft King Size and 6ft Super King Size.
How is the Riviera different from a starburst headboard?
On a starburst headboard the channels fan out across the whole design. On the Riviera the fanned channels sit only at the sides, angled outwards from the base, with a broad smooth panel left plain in the centre. This gives a softer Art Deco look and lets your chosen fabric take centre stage.
Can I get free fabric samples?
Yes. You can order free fabric samples so you can see and feel the real fabric before you choose.
How long does delivery take?
Delivery is normally within 2 weeks of your order. Delivery is free to mainland UK addresses.
