Price History
Description
Created for Flos in 2020, Vincent Van Duysen's Oblique represents the natural evolution of the traditional desk lamp. With its thin, understated profile and compact design, this table lamp delivers powerful task lighting for sleek modern schemes. Boasting a touch dimmer switch, a convenient timer function and revolutionary lens technology, this lamp is perfect for reading, writing and other desk-related activities. There's even a handy USB port on the base for charging devices.
Our Stylist Says
I really like this lamp for its sleek, modern look and versatile colour. The gloss sage finish adds a subtle pop of colour without overwhelming a neutral palette, making it work well in both contemporary and Scandi-inspired interiors. It’s perfect for placement beside a sofa or in a reading nook, providing functional lighting with a touch of style. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with other matte or textured accessories in your space to contrast the glossy finish, or use it to add interest to a minimalist scheme. Its slim profile also ensures it fits comfortably into tighter spaces, making it a great practical yet stylish addition to many rooms.

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.
