It’s no use being coy about this. Our Artisan Bespoke is based quite clearly on the build quality of many of Vi-Spring and Savoir models. We state quite openly that our Artisan Bespoke is “The best mattress your money can buy” with the following reasoning.
To present our case, our Artisan Bespoke is described and detailed to the extreme in order to give you all the initial information you need to make an educated and informed comparison.
The closest comparable model we can find to our Artisan Bespoke is the Vi-Spring Herald Superb. It carries a retail price of £2670 [King] [Nov 2014]. We always try as best we can to base our comparable models to about half the lowest price we can find.
The mattress cover is completely Chemical-Free using a Natural plant-based fire retardancy protection.
This model has a 10 year guarantee.

Our John Ryan Artisan Pocket Spring bases are 12″ in depth plus 2″ for Shepherd Castors making them 14″ in total.
Spring edging can be looked upon as a mini mattress between the main mattress and the base. It offers a progressive support that dampens the strain of weight from the user. This significantly improves the overall comfort level of a mattress. This difference in comfort is often described as ‘Softer’ which is quite an incorrect term to use.
The drawers on the Artisan bases are 32″ wide, 20″ deep and 9″ high.
You can have 2 or 4 drawer options. If using bedside tables you may want to have 2 full size and 2 continental drawers so the drawers next to the bedside tables can be opened fully.
Continental drawers will have the same depth and height as the normal, but width will be 17.5 inches. To find out more such as the sizes and splits that Divans come in please read more here.
We aim to complete all deliveries within 30 days of receiving your order. Deliveries are carried out by two-man courier to the room of your choice. As soon as the courier company receives your order from us, they will call you direct to arrange a convenient delivery date.

Deliveries will be pre-arranged by phone with a time slot between 0800 – 20.00 Monday – Friday. You will also be called on the day of delivery. Please ensure you give us as many contact numbers as possible when placing your order.
If within 60 days you are not entirely happy with the product then call us and we will arrange to have it collected and refund you in full. We do ask that you give your new mattress a minimum of 30 days before requesting an exchange or refund. It can take 4-5 weeks to get fully accustomed to your new mattress.
We have all our mattresses built to our precise specifications and therefore we can personally guarantee each model for a period of time. Each model carries the guarantee timescale at the bottom of the individual listing. This is described as ‘Full Repair or Replace’.
In a nutshell I am going to buy from John Ryan by Design again and already recommended it to my fellow colleagues and friends. This explains it all.
I have purchased Artisan Bespoke Super King Medium/Soft split couple months ago. Frankly I have spent a lot of time trying different mattresses at the shops and got more and more confused more I’ve tried so I simply followed the advise by the office and ordered one thinking worse case scenario I will send it back if it won’t suit me. Being consultant and treating spinal pain for number of years I have suspected how important is the mattress and ability to give a chance for your body to restore itself during the sleep but I did not expect what have’happened. After first night my pain eased and I simply feel more rested in the morning, same with my wife. I believe pocket spring mattress with natural filling is the best and my experience confirms it. Bespoke is quite firm , firmer than Vispring so make sure this is what you want. It suits me.
I would like to thank everybody in the office for bespoke boutique service and especially gentlemen from delivery company who have sorted delivery time out of hours during our first conversation. This is so rare in our time to receive such service when people genuinely care and so important especially for us working impossible schedules. Delivery itself was great I just feel sorry for the team who needs to carry 80kg mattresses upstairs through tight spaces.
Many many thanks ,will buy again and would recommend.
I came across this site last year after researching for a reaaly good quality mattress as I’d had back problems. I decided on the Artisan bespoke as I wanted the best and with the ViSpring being completely out of my range I ordered from here. Given the number of testimonials and the personal service offered I felt the site could be trusted to deliver.
Well what a find this site was! It has to be the most comfortable and luxurious mattress I have ever slept on and has remained so for the past year.
You can tell how much material is in the mattress as it takes two people
to turn it!
I would recommend anyone thinking of buying a new mattress to buy from here. Service was without fault.
Only wish I had a bigger room so I could have had the super king size to really feel like a king! – Stuart Harrison
Have now had the bed for a month, turning the mattress as recommended and am extremely happy with it. It is the best mattress I have ever slept on (including those at some top hotels) and although other manufacturers sell beds much more expensive I cannot possibly see how there could be anything better than the Bespoke. – Malcolm
Recently purchased the Artisan Bespoke and am delighted with the comfort and build quality. This replaced a much loved Hypnos bed but from the first nights use, we found the new bed to be perfect in terms of support. We had been recommended the medium spring tension based on our individual weights and so far we have both slept really well. Our only complaint is that we struggle to prise ourselves from the bed in order to get to work!
The delivery guys were very helpful and unpacked and assembled the bed to enable us to check everything over, and the whole ordering process has been smooth, professional, and trouble free. I would not hesitate to recommend FB Direct and am so pleased that I stumbled upon their website.
Many thanks Pete
