Price History
Description
Specially designed for homes that are short on space but big on style, this Lift Storage Divan can be paired with any Heal’s headboard. The minimalist divan offers plenty of extra storage, without taking up valuable floor space. The divan has an easy-to-lift tilting base that reveals a concealed storage compartment - perfect for hiding away extra bedding and pillows. Each Lift Storage Divan is handcrafted in Lancashire by a family-run factory to the highest possible standard.
Our Stylist Says
I love this divan for its versatile and modern aesthetic, especially with the smart luxe velvet in Acorn. It lends itself well to both contemporary and classic interiors, adding a touch of sophistication without overwhelming the space. The natural feet introduce a subtle contrast, making it easy to pair with wooden or metallic accents. Practical styling tips include keeping bedding neutral for a calm look or adding textured cushions to introduce colour and pattern. It works particularly well in minimalist or Scandinavian-inspired bedrooms, but can be adapted to more eclectic schemes by layering with vibrant throws or statement accessories. Its built-in storage also makes it a practical choice for decluttering smaller bedrooms or guest rooms.

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.
