Description
Designed by husband and wife duo Charles and Ray Eames in 1956, the Santos Palisander Eames Lounge Ottoman with brandy leather upholstery is one of the most iconic designs of the 20th Century.
Our Stylist Says
I love this Eames ottoman for its timeless appeal and high-quality craftsmanship. The Santos Palisander wood adds warmth and a sophisticated texture that works beautifully in both classic and contemporary interiors. It’s perfect as a statement piece in a living room or study, especially paired with mid-century modern or minimalist furniture. When styling, consider placing it alongside a vintage armchair or a sleek sofa to create a balanced look - the wood and leather materials bring a luxe touch without feeling overly formal. Practical tips include using it as a footrest or side table with a tray on top for drinks or decorative items; just be mindful of its appearance in high traffic areas to preserve the wood’s finish.

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.
