The Maranga is Hästens' lightest two-part bed: a middle mattress on a base, 40 centimetres tall, with 1,338 springs and two layers of hand-teased horsehair. The sides are stitched through by hand, which according to Hästens takes two hours. A bed for those who want the construction of a mattress on a base in a more compact size.
The middle mattress has 13-centimetre pocket springs that each move independently; the base has shorter, 8-centimetre Bonnell springs. Hästens describes the combination as a bed that follows the shape of your body and then springs back to its original form.
Around the springs lie cotton, wool and two layers of horsehair. The sides are stitched through by hand; according to Hästens that takes two hours per bed and gives a firm edge, so you can lie right up to the side.
Hästens associates the Maranga with the moments at which people buy a bed: a first proper bed, a new home, a fresh start. Because the pocket springs move independently, you notice little of a partner turning over.
The name is Māori for ‘waking up’. Until 2018 the model was called Luxuria.
The Maranga is a two-part bed: a middle mattress on a base, with stitched-through sides. The Superia is a single base with two spring systems inside, 37 cm tall. They have roughly the same number of springs (1,338 against 1,370), but they are built differently.
Price on request, per configuration: size, legs, fabric and topper determine the amount. Always ask for two models in the same finish if you want to compare them.
