Price History
Description
Our new Richmond Ottoman features a plump cushion upholstered in beautiful fabrics creating a stunning design that is built to stand the test of time. Classic in its simplicity, the ottoman sits upon smartly tapered legs made from hardwearing ash or beech, and is suited perfectly to the rest of the Richmond sofa range. Its versatile shape can carry any type of fabric, but Richmond looks particularly stylish in a rich, colourful velvet that will contrast beautifully with monochrome or metallic accessories.
Our Stylist Says
I love this stool for its versatile and contemporary look, especially with the smart velvet in a rich jade tone which adds a subtle touch of colour without overpowering a space. It works particularly well in modern or minimalist interiors, where its clean lines and light wood legs bring a refreshing contrast. Practical styling tips include using it as an extra seat or footrest in a living room, or pairing it with a cosy corner armchair for an inviting reading nook. It's also quite adaptable; try combining it with other colour tones like blush or grey to create a layered, cohesive look. The velvet fabric elevates its aesthetic, making it suitable for both everyday use and more refined, elegant settings.

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.
