A king size leather headboard is usually between 79 and 81 inches in width, although you can sometimes find non-standard king headboards that are even wider than that.
As for height, king size leather headboards mainly range between 48 and 64 inches.
In order to choose the right size for you, be sure to measure both your mattress and the space around it. If you have some nightstands and other pieces of furniture next to it or some art and shelves on the wall above it, you don’t want your headboard to feel crammed next to them.
King size leather headboards can match different types of furniture depending on their design:
- Darker models with wooden elements are perfect in modern settings, whereas simpler and more streamlined designs are a more natural match for contemporary pieces
- Headboards with tufted designs and harmonious shapes will match French-country and, when white or light, shabby chic furniture
- A neutral color will work more easily with traditional rooms.
Adding a king size leather headboard to your bed comes with several benefits:
- It allows you to sit up comfortably to read and watch TV before falling asleep or to enjoy a well-deserved breakfast in bed
- It protects the wall behind it, preventing wear and tear
- It’ll keep your pillows in place
- It helps maintain a pleasant temperature during both hotter and colder months: in fact, sleeping against a poorly insulated wall can make it harder to get a good night’s sleep
- Leather is easy to clean and maintain
- Finally, a king size leather headboard looks stylish and majestic
