Description
Simple styled and traditionally crafted, the Heal's Pillar Candle adds harmony to the room through its sleek silhouette and warm glow. A decorative and light feature in one, pillar candles are frequently used by interior decorators to add a serene and elegant feel to both modern and traditional spaces. The simple, slender lines look magnificent alongside a collection of different sizes from the range - the varying levels offering endless potential for display. The smooth finish of this thick-stemmed, free-standing candle are gracefully topped by a pointed dome that elevates the wick for an easy light. Handmade in England, blended beeswax gives it a natural ivory tone as well as a slow burn that once lit elegantly melts away over time.

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.
