Price History
Description
Instantly recognisable from its distinctive shape, the Togo Sofa has remained a cult classic for over 40 years. Hand sewn in the small French village of Briord, this low-lying sofa has a curved silhouette providing the characteristic pleats of crumpled fabric and also making it the ideal seat to lay back and relax into.
Our Stylist Says
The Togo small settee in Capa Ecru is a stylish choice for contemporary or eclectic interiors, offering a relaxed, loungy vibe that works well in both casual living rooms and under-stated minimalist schemes. I love its sculptural silhouette and plush comfort, which make it ideal for creating cosy corners or informal seating areas. When styling, consider pairing it with layered textures-think wool throws or velvet cushions-to add depth. Its neutral hue makes it versatile, so it works well with monochrome palettes or as a counterpoint to bold, colourful accents. Practical tip: since it's low to the ground, placing a small, contrasting coffee table nearby can help anchor the space and make access easier.

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.
