Description
Designed by Robert Dudley Best in 1930, the Bauhaus-inspired Bestlite range has become a contemporary classic. Loved by designers and homeowners alike, the BL4 Floor Lamp offers clean lines and understated looks in a highly functional package. The free-standing floor light has a height-adjustable arm and a manoeuvrable shade, so you can direct the light wherever you need it. Reintroduced in brass, the BL4 makes for a chic reading light with a statement feel.
Our Stylist Says
This lamp is a classic example of functional design with a touch of elegance, making it a versatile addition to various interiors. I love how the brass base adds warmth and sophistication, while the black shade keeps it contemporary and sleek. It works particularly well in minimalist or industrial-inspired spaces, but can also add a luxe detail to more traditional or eclectic setups. Practical styling tips include placing it next to a reading chair or sofa to make a stylish yet functional reading nook, or using it as a statement piece in a corner to add height and visual interest. Its adjustable arm makes it great for task lighting, but its timeless design ensures it can complement both modern and vintage interiors seamlessly.

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.
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.
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.
