Description
An exclusive bed available in double, king and super king, the Balmoral bed is a striking addition to the range. With a luxurious, deep-buttoned headboard and beautifully turned legs, the Balmoral bed is our take on a classic design, complete with generous padding and rich velvet upholstery. Handmade in a small factory just outside Bath, this bed has been designed in-house and is exclusively available from Heal's.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Balmoral bedstead’s classic design combined with its sumptuous linen shadow finish, which adds a vintage yet timeless elegance to a bedroom. It works well in both traditional and contemporary interiors, especially those that mix textures and colours. To style it effectively, consider keeping the rest of the room neutral and adding layered textiles such as cosy throws and embroidered cushions for a luxe feel. This bedframe can also serve as a statement piece, so pairing it with minimalistic bedside tables and subtle lighting helps highlight its craftsmanship without overwhelming the space. Its versatility makes it a great focal point for bedrooms aiming for sophistication with a touch of personality.

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.
