Price History
Description
The Crystal lighting collection is inspired by the elaborate designs of late Georgian era chandeliers. This handcrafted table lamp features many hallmarks of Georgian design including large crystal baluster centrepieces, precision cut glass crystals, candle lights and corresponding bobeche dishes originally used to collect candlewax. These elaborate and romantic features are starkly contrasted with the rustic aged metal patina of the Antique Rust finish to create its uniquely authentic look.
Our Stylist Says
I love this crystal table lamp for its elegant and timeless appeal; the combination of its intricate crystal details with a classic silhouette makes it a versatile piece that elevates any interior. It works particularly well in traditional or luxe schemes, but can also add a touch of sophistication to more modern spaces, especially when paired with brass or dark wooden accents. Practical styling tips include positioning it on a side table or console for ambient lighting, and balancing its ornate design with more understated furnishings. Its reflective qualities make it a great choice for brightening darker corners or adding visual interest to a neutral palette.

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.
