seashell headboard

Sizes vary by style. Typical heights are about 29.5–36 inches, widths about 59–61 inches, and thicknesses about 1.2–3 inches.

Materials vary by model. Common examples include upholstered shells in soft velvet filled with high-elastic polyester fiber, and handwoven versions made from natural rattan.

Care depends on construction: upholstered seashell cushions often have removable, machine-washable covers; rattan or woven headboards should be spot-cleaned or wiped with a damp cloth.

They’re often multi-functional: used as wall-mounted headboards, daybed backrests, floor cushions, seat pads, accent pillows, play mats, or headrests for children.

Scalloped seashell headboards are defined by a scalloped shell silhouette and smooth, rounded curves often paired with a sunburst or woven pattern that creates a coastal or bohemian look.

A box spring is generally not required; many seashell headboards are compatible with platform beds.
