Description
The No.5 Series Low Table pairs classic craftsmanship with a clean, contemporary form. Carefully constructed using traditional joinery techniques, the design feels both visually and physically light. Its simple geometry allows it to sit comfortably within a wide range of interiors, while the natural grain of the timber ensures each piece has its own character. Originally part of SCP’s Boxed Collection, the table reflects a thoughtful approach to compact, well-made furniture. Crafted from North American Douglas Fir, highlighting the natural beauty and character of the wood grain. Traditional joinery construction offers durability while maintaining a light, refined silhouette.
Our Stylist Says
The Scp No.5 Series low side table is a versatile piece that works particularly well in both contemporary and minimalist interiors, thanks to its clean lines and natural timber finish. I love how its slatted top adds subtle texture without overwhelming the space, making it ideal for pairing with neutral or muted palettes. Practical styling tips include using it beside a sofa or bed as a surface for lighting, books, or decorative accents. Its simplicity also allows it to sit comfortably alongside other furniture, acting as a neutral anchor within a variety of schemes, whether in a relaxed lounge, a cosy reading nook, or a sleek modern bedroom.

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.
