Description
Specially designed to accompany the Torino Sofa collection, this plump and shapely footstool is exclusively available at Heal’s. Expertly handcrafted in the UK, the Torino Footstool exhibits the masterful tailoring you’d expect from classic British craftsmanship. Plus, its padding and luxurious upholstery ensures it is a comfortable seat as well as a footstool.
Our Stylist Says
I love this footstool for its sleek, minimalist design and rich velvet finish, which adds a touch of sophistication to any space. The midnight black hue makes it versatile, fitting well into contemporary, modern, or even eclectic interiors. It’s perfect as a functional piece in a neutral lounge, acting as extra seating or a stylish resting spot for your feet. To style it effectively, consider pairing it with a plush sofa in lighter tones to create contrast, or with other dark, textured fabrics for a moody, layered look. Practical tips include using it as a coffee table replacement with a tray on top or positioning it near an armchair to encourage its use as a footrest, keeping the space feeling inviting and well-balanced.

Explore from 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.
