Price History
Description
The Arum Floor Lamp is a sophisticated floor lamp that exudes natural class, featuring an asymmetrically shaped marble base that rises to a slender metal stem, curving to a suspended lampshade. Available in a black or cashmere colour, the marble foot counterweighs the petal-shaped lampshade that is painted matte on the underside — exuding a soft, ambient light to frame a lounge chair or brighten any dark corner.
Our Stylist Says
I love this lamp for its sleek, minimalist design that adds a modern touch without overwhelming a space. Its soft, cashmere-like shade creates a warm, inviting glow, making it perfect for cosy corners or to provide ambient lighting in living rooms and bedrooms. It works particularly well in contemporary or Scandinavian-style interiors, where clean lines and subtle textures are key. Practical styling tips include placing it next to a comfy armchair or as a statement piece in a reading nook, pairing it with other understated accessories to enhance its understated elegance. The lamp's slim profile also means it suits smaller spaces or rooms where you want unobtrusive lighting that doesn't compromise your decor.

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.
