Description
Lightly brushed to enhance the natural grain of the timber, the solid oak table top is set upon chunky solid oak legs.

The result is a simple yet timeless piece that is suited to both traditional and contemporary dining spaces. Exclusively available at Heal's
Our Stylist Says
I really like this table for its clean, understated look and solid oak construction, which adds warmth and versatility to various interiors. It works particularly well in contemporary, Scandi, or rustic-style spaces, where its natural finish can be appreciated fully. Practical styling tips include pairing it with sleek or upholstered chairs to balance the raw timber, or layering with a runner and simple centrepiece for a relaxed yet refined dining setting. Because of its neutral tone, it adapts easily to different colour schemes, making it a flexible choice whether you want a minimalist aesthetic or a more eclectic look.

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.
