Description
Create a statement with the Eton Corner Sofa, a design that combines a sleek, minimal aesthetic with the luxurious detailing 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. The legs are available in a choice of brass plated aluminium or blackened aluminium finish for a contemporary look.
Our Stylist Says
I love this corner sofa for its contemporary design and versatile appeal. The velvet upholstery in Artichoke Green adds a rich texture that works well in both modern and eclectic interiors, especially when paired with natural wood or metallic accents. Its size makes it ideal for open-plan living spaces or cosy family rooms, and it lends itself to layering with cushions in contrasting colours or patterns for added visual interest. For styling, consider keeping accessories minimal with clean-lined coffee tables and understated lighting, allowing the sofa to be the focal point. This piece would suit interiors that appreciate a mix of comfort and style, particularly those that embrace bold textures and colours.

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.
