Description
The Balmoral ottoman blends neat proportions with deep button upholstery to create a contemporary take on traditional Chesterfield design. Handmade in Britain exclusively for Heal’s, the Balmoral is built around a hardwood beech and birch frame with turned solid beech feet in matt black stain, walnut stain or natural. Topped with feather wrap foam cushioning for luxurious comfort, each Balmoral ottoman is upholstered in your choice of Designers Guild varese velvet or Heal's own velvet.
Our Stylist Says
I love this green ottoman for its vibrant colour and classic tufted design, which adds a touch of sophistication to both contemporary and traditional interiors. Its broad weave fabric offers a tactile richness that complements neutral palettes, while the walnut feet give it a slightly warm, grounded feel. It works well as a versatile accent piece in living rooms, paired with muted sofas to inject colour, or as a standalone statement in more minimalist schemes. Practical styling tips include layering with textured throws or placing a tray on top to function as a coffee table alternative. Its sturdy construction and compact size make it equally suitable for smaller spaces or as an extra seating option.

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.
