Description
Salina is a contemporary bedroom collection, yet one which remains true to the Ercol design principles of simplicity, elegance, practicality, and lasting beauty. It is made in solid ash and ash veneers, in their Vintage finish, giving it an ageless quality that is equally appropriate for both traditional and modern settings.
Our Stylist Says
I love this vintage-style bed for its timeless appeal and clean lines, making it versatile enough to suit a range of interiors. It works particularly well in Scandi-inspired schemes thanks to its ash tone and simple spindle design, which adds warmth without feeling heavy. Practically, its timber frame offers a sturdy foundation and a relaxed, natural look that balances modern and classic spaces. For styling, consider pairing it with neutral bedding and layered textures such as linen throws or soft textiles to create a cosy, inviting bedroom. This bed frame also lends itself to layering with layered rugs or vintage accessories, making it an ideal choice for rooms aiming for understated elegance with a touch of retro charm.

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.
