Description
Designed by Maurizio Marconato and Terry Zappa, the Penelope Chair is an enveloping upholstered seat that’s perfect for the contemporary dining room. Each chair is made to order by Poradas master Italian craftsmen using the finest solid canaletta walnut with the seat shell upholstered in a tight weave of black and teal cotton linen blend.
Our Stylist Says
I love this Penelope chair for its sleek, modern silhouette combined with the warmth of walnut. It’s a versatile piece that works particularly well in contemporary or Scandinavian-inspired interiors, where its clean lines can be showcased against neutral tones or layered with textured accessories. The Dorian colour adds a subtle pop without overpowering a space. Practical styling tips include pairing it with a minimalist dining table or using it to add comfort and colour to a home office nook. When styling, consider contrasting the walnut leg detail with a textured or patterned seat cushion for added personality, or leave it simple for a refined, understated look.

About Heal's
Explore from Heal's. Founded in 1810, Heal's are an iconic brand with a history of innovation, and are synonymous with timeless elegance and exceptional 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.
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.
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.
