What it is

The Grand Vividus appeared in 2020, a collaboration between Hästens and the Canadian designer Ferris Rafauli. Unlike the rest of the collection it is not a single bed but a set: a mattress, a base shaped like a travelling trunk, and a headboard, with leather, suede and saddlery metalwork.

Inside is what sits inside every Hästens bed — horsehair, wool, cotton and flax on a frame of slow-grown Swedish pine — but in a quantity and a layering no other model has. Hästens counts more than six hundred working hours for it; the Vividus takes three hundred and twenty.

How it compares to the Vividus

The Vividus of 2006 was, for fifteen years, the furthest Hästens went. The Grand Vividus is not a larger version of it but a different premise: not the best possible bed, but the bed without a ceiling. More hours, more material, an outside designer, and a price two to three times higher.

The difference in comfort between the two is not twice as large, and Hästens nowhere claims it is. What you buy above the Vividus is the extreme for its own sake. That is a legitimate reason, as long as you know it is the reason.

What is known about the price

At its introduction the Grand Vividus was announced as the four-hundred-thousand-dollar bed. Dealers publishing the 2025 European list price now quote roughly five hundred thousand to six hundred and thirty thousand euros, depending on size and finish; the 210 by 210 centimetre size sits around € 576,000. Our own price is on request, per configuration.

Lying on it

Our fixed suites hold the 2000T and the drēmər, because that is the question most people have to answer. The Grand Vividus does not stand there permanently, but anyone who wants to lie on the most expensive bed in the world asks in advance and we prepare it — half a day, a full day or a night, with the time you need. Only by special request, and only here.

Often the answer afterwards is no, and that is the most useful outcome there is: whoever cannot feel the difference has saved the price of a car in a single afternoon. And sometimes the answer is yes, and then you know exactly why.
