Description
Handmade in Lancashire by a family run bed maker, the Heal’s Divan has been developed to provide superior comfort while also prolonging the life of your mattress. Fully upholstered in your choice of eight contemporary fabrics, the sprung base is crafted from FSC certified timber and filled with natural fibres for a supportive and breathable night’s sleep. The Heal’s Divan is designed to pair with a range of upholstered headboards and is available with or without built-in storage drawers. You can also sleep soundly in the knowledge that all of our divans and headboards come with a 10 year guarantee.
Our Stylist Says
The deep divan in velvet offers a luxurious feel and a streamlined silhouette that works well in contemporary and transitional bedrooms. I love that its plush, tactile fabric can elevate a minimalist space, adding warmth and texture. It pairs beautifully with crisp linen or smooth cottons for bedding, but can also handle layered throws and cushions for a more eclectic look. Practical styling tips include mixing neutral tones with accent colours in your bedding to create visual interest, and keeping the surrounding furnishings simple to let the velvet headboard be the focal point. This piece is versatile enough to work in both city apartments and more relaxed country retreats, offering comfort and style in equal measure.

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.
