Price History
Description
Inspired by the classic Chesterfield, the Westminster Button in Jack’d N Brok’n or Buck'd. N Brok'n has all the daring hallmarks of Timothy Oulton coupled with authentic handcraftsmanship. This innovative finish is created from aniline leathers that have been overpainted with the Union Jack graphic and then heavily distressed by skilled master craftsmen. Simple wooden and serrated tools are used to score, scratch and break the surface of the leather on the finished piece, for an extreme, heavily distressed look. Each piece is completely one of a kind and crafted with pride.
Our Stylist Says
I love this vintage-inspired sofa for its classic Chesterfield silhouette combined with the rugged appeal of broken leather, giving it real character and a slightly worn-in charm. It works beautifully in both traditional and eclectic interiors, especially when paired with modern or industrial accents to create an inviting, lived-in feel. Practical styling tips include balancing its timeless look with contemporary accessories like geometric cushions or sleek side tables, and it’s a great piece to anchor a lounge or a cosy corner. Its 3-seater size makes it versatile, while the broken leather adds texture and depth to any space, making it a statement piece that also feels approachable and comfortable.

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.
