Our Stylist Says
I love this footstool for its sleek, contemporary design and versatile styling potential. The Appa Peplum works well in modern, minimalist interiors, especially when paired with neutral or monochrome schemes to add a touch of texture and comfort. It’s also a practical piece for injecting a bit of colour or pattern into a more subdued space. I’d suggest using it as a functional accent in living rooms or reading nooks, and layering with other soft furnishings like throws and cushions to create a cosy, inviting environment. Its low profile makes it perfect for use as either a footrest or a small coffee table, making it a flexible addition to both casual and styled-up interiors.

About Heal's
Founded in 1810, Heal's are an iconic brand with a history of innovation, and are synonymous with timeless elegance and exceptional 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.
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.
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.
