I wanna: find / buy a leather divan base

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a double divan bed base (no mattress needed), but I don't want one of the typically 'floral', checked or pale-coloured ones.

I've seen suede/suede effect divan beds, and on some (very expensive) sites leather divans, but I have a relatively small budget (c. £200-250) and would consider faux leather.

Does anyone know where I could find such bases? A standard bedframe will be too long for my room, but a divan will just fit.

TIA

    A shameless bump; I'll assume though that no-one knows of any?

    I'm sure that there are a few manufacturers who could supply a faux leather covered base. Probably best to try the smaller companies as they tend to be happier to make special orders.

    I have plans to cover my DD's bed base when I get round to it, the material will cost around £40 and I already have the heavy duty stapler required, that way I can make her a matching headboard.;)
