Price History
Description
Designed by Danish studio Says Who, the Lilli Up reinterprets the original Lilli’s soft, sculpted aesthetic in a more elevated sofa design. Evolving from the modular format, it introduces integrated arms and raised metal feet to create a lighter, more architectural feel. A higher, more upright seat enhances support, while maintaining the compact proportions and inviting comfort of the original. Exclusive to Heal’s and made in the UK, it is available in 2, 3 and 4 seater options. Gently rounded lines, foam cushioning and pull-in stitch detailing reflect its considered craftsmanship.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Heal's Lilli sofa for its sleek, contemporary silhouette and luxurious velvet finish, which instantly elevates any living space. The midnight black feet add a subtle contrast that grounds the piece, making it versatile enough to work in both modern and more eclectic interiors. It's particularly well-suited to minimalist schemes or rooms with bold statement colours, where it won’t compete but rather enhance the overall aesthetic. For styling tips, consider pairing it with textured cushions in jewel tones or metallic accents to add depth, and keep the surrounding decor simple to let the sofa be the focal point. Its size and shape also make it perfect for both relaxed family spaces and more sophisticated lounges.

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.
