Description
Designed by Anders and Lars Hegelund, the Selandia Table reflects the collection’s signature blend of Nordic clarity and subtle French influence. Crafted from 100% FSC-certified teak, its softly rounded edges and balanced proportions create an inviting setting for outdoor dining. Built for durability and timeless appeal, the table can be extended with a matching leaf, available separately, allowing it to accommodate up to eight people for relaxed gatherings and long summer meals.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Fritz Hansen Selandia Oval Dining Table for its sleek, minimal design and versatile appeal. Its natural wood finish lends warmth and texture, making it a great centrepiece for both modern and Scandi-inspired interiors. This table works well in open-plan living areas or larger dining rooms, where its elongated shape can accommodate family gatherings or dinner parties with ease. For styling, consider pairing it with simple, contemporary chairs or a mix of sleek and organic styles to enhance its timeless appeal. Keeping accessories minimal and let the natural grain and shape of the table shine through is a good rule of thumb; add a centrepiece like a vase with greenery for a touch of freshness. It’s practical, stylish and adaptable, making it a wise choice for those wanting a durable yet refined dining solution.

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.
