With fixed seat and back cushions, generously filled with layers of foam, the Alto provides soft comfort with plenty of lumber and back support. The gentle curve of the arms juxtaposed against slim metal legs, makes Alto the perfect combination of style and comfort. Made in the UK and available in the full range of Heal’s fabrics.
Our Stylist Says
I love this loveseat because of its versatile design and the soft Duck Egg linen mix fabric, which adds a subtle colour that’s both calming and stylish. The black feet give it a contemporary edge and help anchor the piece within a variety of interiors. It works particularly well in small living areas, offering a cosy seating option without overwhelming the space. For styling, consider pairing it with neutral-toned cushions and textured throws to create a layered, inviting look. It also pairs nicely with both modern minimalism and more eclectic interiors, making it quite a flexible choice for a wide range of schemes.

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.
