Description
The Visu Chair offers a fresh interpretation of the classic wooden chair. Crafted from form-pressed veneer, its gently curved seat and backrest create a balanced profile that feels both light and comfortable. The slender base enhances the chair’s refined simplicity, making it well suited to dining spaces, home offices or commercial interiors where modern Scandinavian design meets everyday functionality. Designed by Mika Tolvanen, reflecting the clarity and simplicity of contemporary Scandinavian design. Available in Dusty Green and Dark Green finishes for a subtle yet distinctive colour accent.
Our Stylist Says
I love this chair for its clean, Scandinavian-inspired design that blends form with function effortlessly. Its dusty green hue is versatile, working well in both modern and more traditional interiors, adding a subtle pop of colour without overpowering the space. The wooden base offers warmth and texture, making it a great choice for dining areas that aim for a relaxed yet stylish vibe. Practical styling tips include pairing it with a neutral-toned dining table to highlight the colour or mixing with other soft pastel accents for a welcoming, cohesive look. It works particularly well in open-plan kitchens or dining rooms where simplicity and functionality are key.

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.
