Description
The Matera bed has a sleek and modern design made with traditional craftsmanship. Taking its name from the southern Italian town in which it is built, its design has all the characteristics of contemporary Italian furniture; clean lines, metal legs and astute attention to detail. The headboard is meticulously sewn with the slightest of curves which adds to its already elegant silhouette. Upholstered in buttery leathers and soft fabrics, the Matera bed is a masterclass in contemporary design.
Our Stylist Says
The Matera bedstead in Nobilis velvet espresso is a fantastic statement piece that combines luxury with modern simplicity. I love its rich, plush velvet finish, which adds a touch of sophistication to any bedroom. It works particularly well in contemporary or minimalist interiors, where its sleek lines create a sense of understated elegance. For styling, I recommend pairing it with neutral or muted bedding to let the velvet texture stand out, while layered cushions and throws in complementary tones can add depth and comfort. Practical tips include using bed bases with storage options if space is tight, and keeping the surrounding furniture minimal to maintain its sleek silhouette. Overall, it's a versatile piece that elevates both classic and modern spaces seamlessly.

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.
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.
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.
