Description
A slender frame and solid wood feet give the Heal’s Shallow Divan the appearance of a bedstead while providing all the support of a divan. Handmade in Lancashire by a family run bed maker, this divan has been developed to provide superior comfort while also prolonging the life of your mattress. The shallow sprung base is crafted from FSC certified timber and filled with natural fibres for a supportive and breathable night’s sleep. Designed to pair with a range of upholstered headboards, the Heal’s Shallow Divan comes fully upholstered in your choice of eight contemporary fabrics with four solid wood foot options. You can also sleep soundly in the knowledge that all of our divans and headboards come with a 10 year guarantee.
Our Stylist Says
I really like this bed base for its clean, modern look and versatile colour palette, making it a great anchor piece in both contemporary and Scandinavian-inspired interiors. The Lagoon Light tone adds a subtle touch of colour without overpowering the space, while the Broadweave fabric offers a tactile feel that enhances the overall sophistication. It works particularly well in bedrooms with neutral palettes, layered with textured throws, plush cushions, or patterned bedding to create a cosy yet stylish retreat. Practical styling tips include pairing it with simple bedside tables and a statement light fitting, allowing the bed to remain the focal point. Its simple silhouette also lends itself well to a variety of interior schemes, making it a flexible choice for updating or building a calm, restful sanctuary.

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.
