Description
With its deep seat and curvaceous arms the Ravello provides the perfect corner sofa for stylish, relaxed spaces. To complement the sprung seat and feather filled cushions, this functional sofa is upholstered in your choice of Heal’s fabrics and also comes in a range of sizes that make it easy to mix and match with your living room.
Our Stylist Says
I love this corner sofa for its sleek petrol velvet upholstery, which adds a rich, contemporary touch to any living space. Its right-hand configuration makes it ideal for creating cosy, inviting corners in open-plan or compact rooms alike. The plush velvet finish brings a tactile elegance that pairs well with both modern and transitional interiors - think layered textiles and metallic accents. For styling, consider balancing the bold colour with neutral cushions or throws, and position it in a well-lit corner to enhance the luxurious feel. Its versatile shape and stylish look make it a practical statement piece that anchors a room while offering ample seating for family and guests.

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.
