Price History
Description
Dokka is a small light with a big history. Designed in 1954, Dokka was the first lamp from Norway to receive a Golden Medal award at the prestigious Triennale di Milano. It had the potential to become a design classic from day one.
Our Stylist Says
The Northern Dokka Pendant in warm beige is a versatile and understated choice that adds a touch of contemporary elegance to various interiors. I love its soft colour palette and simple silhouette, making it perfect for pairing with both modern and Scandi-inspired schemes. It's especially effective in kitchens, dining areas, or bedrooms where you want to create a calm, inviting atmosphere. For styling, consider hanging multiple units at different heights for a layered look, or pairing it with natural materials like wood or matte metals for a cohesive feel. Its warm tone helps to diffuse light gently, making it a practical yet stylish focal point in any room.

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.
