Our Stylist Says
The Eames lounge chair & ottoman in walnut with a dark sand finish is a classic piece that brings both comfort and a timeless aesthetic to any interior. I love its mid-century modern design, which pairs beautifully with both contemporary and vintage spaces. Its rich walnut tone adds warmth, while the dark sand upholstery offers a sophisticated contrast, making it versatile for leather or fabric schemes. To style it effectively, keep the surroundings minimal to highlight its craftsmanship, and consider placing it in a reading nook or living room corner for maximum impact. Pairing it with a simple side table and a cosy throw can elevate its practicality, while still making it a statement piece. It’s perfect for creating a refined yet inviting vibe.

About 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.
