Description
A stunning testament to mid-century furniture, the best-selling Mistral elegantly teams 1950s style with a contemporary approach to design. Part of our luxuriously comfortable Mistral range, this roomy four seater adds a touch of vintage glamour to the home remaining one of our most popular pieces for over a decade.
Our Stylist Says
This sofa is a striking statement piece thanks to its bold red Melton wool fabric, making it ideal for adding colour and vibrancy to a modern or eclectic interior. I love how versatile it is-its clean lines and black feet give it a contemporary edge, while the wool upholstery adds a touch of texture and comfort. It works well in neutral schemes where it can serve as a focal point, or in more playful, colourful interiors that embrace bold accents. Practical styling tips include pairing it with muted cushions and throws to balance the statement colour, or mixing it with patterns and textures for a layered, lived-in look. Its size makes it perfect for socialising spaces, and the robust wool fabric is practical for everyday use, ensuring it remains stylish over time.

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.
