“BETTER FURNITURE FOR BETTER TIMES”

A quote from Ambrose Heal - and #3 on the run down list (by the way this list is only a fraction of what I look at regularly I am not counting stores like Anthropolgie, Pottery Barn, WS etc...)

Beginning as a bed making firm 1810 we’ve been designing and making quality furniture ever since. We love it and we're good at it. When Sir Ambrose Heal joined the firm in 1893, he had the vision to work with the most skilled designers and crafts people of the day to create furniture that is comfortable, beautiful and affordable, reflecting the ideals of the Arts and Crafts Movement. Influential designers like Mies van de Rohe, Marcel Breuer and Robin and Lucienne Day have all been drawn to Heal’s distinctive character and reputation for innovation.

This tradition lives on, Heal’s continues to work with the designers of the future and offer home furnishings that represent the best in contemporary design.

Today, Heal's has seven stores located throughout the UK and an online store http://www.heals.co.uk/. Heal's sell a wide range of modern, designer and contemporary furniture, homewares, lighting, accessories and gifts for the home. Buy from leading designers, with often exclusive designs to Heal's, and brands such as Philippe Starck, Tom Dixon, Orla Kiely, John Reeves and Matthew Hilton.

Here are a few pieces and rooms I adore.
I love this chair for a den or study….in front of a roaring fire – a great update to the classic leather club chair.
Beautiful harvest table – slightly updated!
Crisp and clean – an OCD’s dream!
