Price History
Description
The Keel Pendant is a striking display of confident, modern design. Made from one isolated section, a wide piece of oak timber is arched by hand into a choreographed formation. Producing funnels of diffused downlight, this tapered wooden lampshade will bring warmth as bedside lights, function in space-saving hallways, and create drama over kitchen islands.
Our Stylist Says
I love this pendant’s contemporary yet warm design, making it a versatile choice for a variety of interiors. Its sculptural form works particularly well in minimalist, Scandi-inspired, or modern industrial spaces, adding a touch of understated sophistication. Practical styling tips include hanging it over dining tables or kitchen islands for a focal point, or pairing it with similar pendant lights at varying heights for a more dynamic look. The neutral, natural finish makes it easy to coordinate with both cool and warm colour palettes, and it pairs beautifully with soft textiles or sleek furniture to create an inviting, balanced space.

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.
