Dash celebrates the natural warmth and character of timber while offering a versatile, timeless centrepiece for everyday dining and entertaining. Innovative extension mechanism adds 60cm to the tabletop, transforming its round profile into a generous oval dining surface. Expertly crafted from sustainably sourced solid wood.

Our Stylist Says
I really like this table for its versatile design and practical functionality. The walnut finish adds warmth and sophistication, making it suitable for a range of interiors from Scandinavian to contemporary styles. Its extendable feature makes it ideal for both everyday family meals and larger gatherings, while the pared-back, clean lines lend it a relaxed yet polished look. Practical styling tips include pairing it with minimalist chairs for a modern feel or mixing different textures like fabric or leather seats for a more eclectic vibe. Incorporating a simple runner or centrepiece can help make the table feel inviting without overwhelming its sleek profile.

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.
