Description
Get lost in your book while enjoying the soft ambient glow of the Geen-A Floor Lamp, which stands at the perfect height to be paired with beds and armchairs. It has been specifically designed to be a reading lamp, casting downwards an even diffusion of lighting that is just enough to be functional while maintaining a cosy, relaxed atmosphere. Available in a trio of contemporary colours, this lamp features stylish powder-coated matte finish.
Our Stylist Says
I love this lamp for its sleek, minimalist style and its versatility across a range of interior schemes. Its monochrome palette makes it ideal for modern or contemporary spaces, especially if you’re looking to add visual interest without overwhelming the décor. It works particularly well in open-plan living areas, bedrooms, or reading corners, where it can serve as both a statement piece and a functional light source. For styling tips, consider pairing it with natural textures like wood or soft fabrics to soften its modern edge. Additionally, placing it on a side table or alongside a cosy armchair can elevate the overall look while providing practical lighting.

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.
