Price History
Description
Meaning 'cloud' in Italian, the Three-Seater Nuvola is large enough to accommodate friends and family more than comfortably. Designed by Danish studio Says Who exclusively for Heal’s, the sofa features curves in all the right places. It features solid wooden feet and comes in a choice of Heal's fabrics. It’s a beautiful piece that pairs with the other sofas and beds in the collection.
Our Stylist Says
I’d call this the Nuvola sofa - its warm, tawny-velvet upholstery and walnut-stained feet make it a versatile anchor for both contemporary and mid-century schemes. The smart luxe velvet has enough depth to stand up to everyday use while still feeling indulgent, so it works equally well in a pared-back Scandi setting or as a cosy counterpoint in a muted, modern living room. Styling tip: pair with a low-profile oak coffee table and a neutral, flat-weave rug to balance the rich tone. Throw in cushions in soft greys or muted greens for contrast, and flank with slim-lined metal or ceramic side tables to keep the look light. The sofa’s curved arms and deep seat mean you can layer blankets or larger cushions without overcrowding the seating area.

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.
