In 2025, Swedish luxury bedmaker Hästens marks a century since the birth of Jack Ryde and Solveig Ryde, the fourth-generation custodians of its storied legacy. To honor the visionary behind the brand’s iconic blue-and-white check design, Hästens introduces the Jack Ryde 100th Anniversary Limited Edition 2000T bed.

Revolutionizing Bed Design with the Iconic Blue-and-White Check
Since its inception in 1852, Hästens has pursued excellence with unwavering passion, creating the ultimate sleep experience to foster harmony and well-being. In the 1970s, Jack Ryde redefined the sleep industry by introducing the now-iconic blue-and-white check pattern—a groundbreaking design that seamlessly blends aesthetics with function.
First showcased at the Stockholm Furniture Fair in 1978, the 2000T bed, adorned with its striking blue-and-white check, captivated audiences and swiftly became a symbol of Swedish design excellence. Beyond its visual appeal, the check served as a precision tool for Hästens craftsmen, ensuring exceptional accuracy and uniformity in the bed-making process.
The blue-and-white check is more than a design choice—it’s a commitment to quality. It reflects Hästens’ dedication to using natural materials, preserving artisanal techniques, and pursuing unparalleled comfort. The simplicity of this pattern encourages users to focus on the essence of sleep itself. Today, this iconic design is deeply ingrained in Hästens’ identity, with its name, pattern, and logo registered as trademarks in Sweden—reserved exclusively for Hästens beds.
