Price History
Description
Hand-blown and spherical, the Toru pendant is a contemporary light for modern or traditional homes, and features a dramatic glass dimple that enables the bulb to be placed directly in the middle of the orb. A compact and stylish fixture for any space.
Our Stylist Says
I love this pendant light for its contemporary twist on classic design, with the smoked glass adding a touch of sophistication. It works particularly well in modern or industrial interiors, creating a focal point that doesn’t overpower the space. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with neutral tones or minimalist decor to let the glass and its unique shape shine. Practical tips include hanging it above a dining table or in a hallway where its statement silhouette can be appreciated, and pairing it with warm or dimmable bulbs to emphasise the glow through the smoked glass without harsh glare. Overall, a versatile choice that brings a sleek, modern edge to various interior schemes.

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.
