Our Stylist Says
I love the Heal's armchair for its versatile, timeless appeal and cosy yet modern vibe. The Melton wool upholstery in granite grey makes it easy to style with a range of colour schemes, from soft neutrals to darker, moodier tones. Its clean lines and compact footprint suit both contemporary and classic interiors, especially in cosy living rooms or family spaces where comfort is key. To style it effectively, consider pairing with textured cushions or a complementary throw to add layers of warmth, and place it alongside a simple coffee table or side table for practical use. Its armchair design also makes it ideal as a small, versatile piece in a home office or reading nook, offering both relaxation and style without overwhelming the space.

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.
