Description
The Allora Four-Seater Sofa is our latest collaboration with Danish studio Says Who. Designed exclusively for Heal's, the sofa features a slim shape and a lightweight frame, while springs add comfort. Seat, back and arm cushions are all made from Quallofil® Blue fibre made from recycled bottles. Better still, it comes in a choice of fabrics and a selection of finishes for the legs, meaning it's as stylish as it is practical.
Our Stylist Says
The Heal's Allora 4 Seater Sofa in boucle indigo with brass feet is a stylish choice that adds a contemporary yet cosy touch to any living space. I love how the boucle fabric brings texture and depth, making it inviting without feeling bulky. It works particularly well in modern interiors with clean lines or in eclectic schemes where the boho feel can be enhanced by other warm textures and rich colours. For styling tips, try mixing with metallic accents or jewel-toned accessories to highlight the indigo tone. Its slim brass legs create a lighter profile, so pairing it with a plush rug and layered cushions can create a balanced, welcoming look. This sofa is versatile enough for both open-plan living and cosy corners, making it a reliable choice for many interiors.

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.
