Price History
Description
Instantly recognisable from its distinctive shape, the Togo has remained a cult classic for over 40 years. Hand sewn in the small French village of Briord, the curved silhouette of the legendary sofa provides the characteristic pleats of crumpled fabric whilst also making it the ideal seat to lay back and relax into.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Ligne Roset Togo in Capa Gris for its relaxed, sculptural silhouette that instantly elevates any lounge or open-plan living space. Its generous size makes it perfect for casual lounging or hosting friends, and the neutral grey tone offers versatility to sit comfortably within both contemporary and more eclectic interiors. When styling, consider pairing it with crisp, modern coffee tables or colourful accent cushions for visual interest, while keeping surrounding decor minimal for maximum impact. Practical tip: since the sofa's fabric has a textured, soft appearance, it works well in spaces where comfort is key, but make sure to protect the fabric if you have pets or high-traffic areas.

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.
