Mille Et Une Nuit Daybed — Bespoke bohemian chic elegance
There are pieces of furniture that tell a story. The Mille Et Une Nuit daybed is one of them. Halfway between an oriental daybed and a French-style chaise longue, it embodies a rare aesthetic: that of motionless travel, understated luxury, and beauty that endures.
An icon of the Bérengère Leroy collection , the Mille Et Une Nuit is the little sister of the eponymous sofa —same DNA, same sophistication, same freedom of configuration. Handcrafted in our workshops in the south of France, it is fully customizable in terms of dimensions, fabrics, and stitching finishes.
The One Thousand and One Nights identity: between French classicism and a nomadic spirit
The Mille Et Une Nuit daybed does not choose between two worlds — it inhabits them both simultaneously.
On one hand, French chic : clean lines, controlled proportions, and couture finishes of atelier precision. On the other, the bohemian spirit of the nomadic world : natural materials with a generous feel, layered cushions, and a color palette inspired by the lands, spices, and skies of travel.
It is this creative tension—between order and freedom, between sobriety and sensuality—that gives the Arabian Nights its instantly recognizable character. It adapts equally well to a Parisian Haussmannian apartment as to a Provençal country house or a Mediterranean villa.
Comfort thought out down to the smallest detail
The double mattress topper system: innovation for everyday life
The Mille Et Une Nuit incorporates a comfort solution that we have not seen anywhere else: two superimposed mattress toppers , one on top of the other, which together form a seat that is both firm and enveloping.
These two mattress toppers are reversible and interchangeable —a crucial practical feature for long-term use. If one gets stained, simply flip it over or replace it without having to change the entire mattress cover. This detail makes a big difference in everyday life, especially with children or pets.
A generous seat, a deep rest
Offered in standard dimensions of 170 cm in length and 95 cm in depth , the Mille Et Une Nuit provides an exceptional sleeping surface. These dimensions can, however, be fully customized to suit your space and needs.
Cushions included: a complete set delivered with the room
Each Mille Et Une Nuit daybed comes with a set of cushions designed for immediate and stylistically consistent use:
- 1 back cushion
- 2 cushions 50 × 50 cm
- 2 cushions 30 × 50 cm
These cushions can be dressed in the same fabric as the chaise longue or in a different fabric to play on the contrast of materials — washed linen and velvet, or chenille and cotton linen.
Available fabrics: a range of natural materials
Mille Et Une Nuit dresses exclusively in Bérengère Leroy textile collections — natural materials selected for their quality, durability and ability to age gracefully.
Washed linen
Our signature fabric . Soft, slightly crinkled, breathable: washed linen brings a Provençal and Mediterranean feel to the Mille Et Une Nuit collection. Available in a wide range of colors—ivory, white, khaki, azure blue, terracotta, sage green—it complements almost any interior style.
Soft washed chenille cotton linen
A thicker fabric with a velvety, warm feel. The soft-washed cotton-chenille linen provides a visible, almost tactile texture that significantly enhances the chaise longue's presence in the space. Ideal for interiors seeking depth without opulence.
Tsar Velvet
For a more luxurious, more sensory experience. Tsar velvet captures light differently depending on the angle and time of day, giving the Mille Et Une Nuit collection an almost lifelike presence. Its deep colors—night, plum, forest green, and burgundy—make it the natural choice for interiors with a strong personality.
Mixture of materials
As with all our bespoke creations, we encourage mixing and matching: a washed linen body with velvet cushions, or a chenille seat with a linen backrest. These combinations are central to the Bérengère Leroy aesthetic.

Couture finishes: your exclusive touch
The couture finish is what transforms a chaise longue into a handcrafted work of art. At Bérengère Leroy, it's not an option — it's inherent to every creation.
For the Arabian Nights, you choose from our signature finishes:
- Liseret — fine and precise piping, discreet and elegant
- Edge to edge — clean, contemporary, minimalist
- Apache — wide, handcrafted and bold topstitching
- Cheyenne — a decorative diagonal point, between tradition and character
- African — textile finish inspired by nomadic arts, perfectly in keeping with the spirit of the collection
The couture finish is included in the price — it is an integral part of the Bérengère Leroy offer.
Custom configuration: all available options
Custom dimensions
The Arabian Nights is made to the exact dimensions of your choice:

The Arabian Nights dossier is mobile:
