Description
The new Monroe headboard effortlessly mixes generous proportions with feminine, sweeping lines. As well as creating a sense of scale and drama, the statement winged design creates a cocoon-like feel for a restful sleep. Produced in the UK, the Monroe headboard, featured here in an understated rustic linen, is available in all Heal's fabrics. Sitting upon a Heal's divan base in the same premium upholstery, this bed is perfect for your own creative escape.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Monroe Headboard for its sleek, modern silhouette and the luxurious Varese velvet in Delft - it’s a versatile shade that adds colour without overwhelming a scheme. This headboard works beautifully in contemporary interiors, especially those with a softer colour palette or neutral tones, as it can add a touch of understated elegance. For styling tips, pair it with crisp white or neutral bed linens and keep other accessories minimal to let the headboard be the focal point. It’s also a great choice for a small bedroom thanks to its clean lines, which help create a sense of space. To keep it looking its best, avoid placing it in direct sunlight for extended periods to preserve the vibrant colour of the velvet.

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.
