Description
Create a statement with the Eton range, a mid century style sofa that gives a look of luxury and offers a relaxed feel. This sofa combines a sleek, minimal aesthetic with the design details you would expect from Heal’s. The Eton has sumptuously filled seat cushions with neat blind stitch detail and its back cushions are filled with feathers for maximum comfort. Mid-century design featuring sumptuously filled feather and fibre cushion will provide an exceptional comfort. Compact design carries a small footprint for a sleek silhouette. The choice of legs are available in brass plated aluminium or blackened aluminium finish.
Our Stylist Says
I love this sofa for its clean lines and versatile appeal, making it a great statement piece in both modern and contemporary interiors. The cotton velvet in evergreen provides a rich, tactile texture that adds depth to any colour palette, while the black feet lend a subtle contrast that grounds the piece. It works particularly well in neutral or muted schemes, where it can serve as a pop of colour, but also pairs beautifully with more patterned or layered looks. For styling, consider combining it with soft throws and cushions in complementary shades or textures to create a cosy, inviting feel. Practical tips include maintaining the velvet with gentle vacuuming and avoiding direct sunlight to keep it looking its best.

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.
