Price History
Description
Created by Danish designers Julie Begtrup and Ditte Vad for Woud, the ARC Coffee Table is named after the mathematical concept of a smooth curve joining two points in a circle. Offering the choice between concealed and open storage, the three-legged table features a layer that rotates easily to hide clutter.
Our Stylist Says
I’m a fan of the Woud Arc coffee table in oak because of its clean, minimalist design and warm natural finish. It works particularly well in modern and Scandinavian-inspired interiors, adding a touch of sophistication without feeling overpowering. Its rounded edges and simple form make it versatile - it can sit comfortably in both compact living rooms and more open, airy spaces. Practical tips include styling with a mix of neutral-toned accessories and greenery to highlight the oak’s natural grain, while keeping the surface uncluttered for functional use. It’s a statement piece that balances aesthetic appeal with everyday practicality.

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.
