Description
An original Arturo Alvarez design, the Fluo intertwines emotion, functionality and premium craftsmanship to create a textural and ambient addition to the home. Handcrafted in Spain, this experimental piece is composed of intricate veils of painted steel mesh that gather gracefully around a single light point to give the illusion of a tulle-like fabric that both reveals and shields light. Forming a fluid, elegant silhouette, this pendant works to artfully play with light volumes and intensity levels.
Our Stylist Says
I love the pendant’s playful yet sophisticated design; its sculptural form adds visual interest without overwhelming a space. It works particularly well in contemporary or minimalist interiors, where the light fixture can serve as a statement piece. When styling, consider hanging it over dining tables, kitchen islands, or in high-ceilinged living rooms to create a focal point. For practical tips, pair it with dimmable bulbs to adjust the mood and keep the surrounding decor simple - letting this eye-catching piece do the talking. Its airy, textured look also allows it to complement a variety of colour schemes, from neutral tones to bolder accents.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
