Description
A soothing, contemporary design, the Cumulus has deep feather filled seats, serpentine sprung base and an extended chaise for optimum support. Slender back cushions feature double piping around their border and can be rearranged to suit your interior scheme. Made from a robust solid wood frame, the straight lines and edging of the Cumulus are contrasted by sloping curves that run along the top of its arms and backrest, while other more subtle details include hidden feet that provide a soft, floating feel. Available in a range of Heal's luscious velvets or textured woven cotton fabrics.
Our Stylist Says
The Heal's Cumulus corner sofa in velvet offers a luxurious yet practical choice for larger living spaces. I love its contemporary silhouette and plush velvet upholstery, which adds richness and comfort to any interior. It works particularly well in modern or transitional settings, where its clean lines can be paired with bold colours or textured cushions for contrast. For styling, consider mixing with metallic accents or soft textiles like throws and cushions to soften the look. Practical tips include placing it in a well-lit area to highlight its velvet finish and layering around it with rugs or side tables to create a cosy, inviting atmosphere. This sofa is perfect for entertaining or relaxing and can anchor a stylish, functional living room.

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.
