Description
High impact comfort seating, commonly known as our true ‘sloucher’. The Shabby sofa is beautifully cushioned with ribbed sewing to create a distinctive signature look in buttery soft Destroyed Black leather. The Shabby sofa makes a big impression, either as a sectional with all pieces combined or as a standalone sofa.
Our Stylist Says
I love this sofa for its bold, distressed black leather finish, which lends a cool, urban edge to any space. Its casual, worn look works particularly well in eclectic, industrial, or modern interiors where you want a piece that feels relaxed yet stylish. The fact that it doubles as a sofabed adds practical versatility-perfect for smaller apartments or guest spaces. To style around it, consider pairing with textured throws, rugged or vintage-inspired accessories, and metallic accents for a layered, lived-in vibe. Its neutral tone makes it a versatile anchor that can be paired with both colourful and monochrome schemes, while the slightly imperfect finish ensures it ages beautifully and stays looking edgy over time.

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.
