50s-style Sidde armchair from Heal’s

Posted on | Leave a comment

Sidde

This Sidde armchair is another treat from Heal's new Scandinavian season. 

Like the other designs in the collection, this design looks to the 1950s for its influence, evident in its sloping shape and taped wooden legs. Even the colourways – pick from lavender or jade – are mid-century inspired. The chair has been designed by John Jenkins, the man behind the Archiv Storage unit we featured a few weeks back. There's also a (non-sloping) footstool available to match. 

The chair £1150, while the footstool will set you back an additional £595.

Heal’s Discovers Geometry Sideboard

Posted on | Leave a comment

Geometry_sideboard_m 
The Geometry Sideboard by Burgundy Applegate is part of a range of products in the Heal’s Discovers range. It is inspired by both Danish design and Art Nouveau.

It has a solid walnut frame and a lacquered top. It is available with either the patterned front shown here or in plain grey, costing £795 and £695 respectively. It is smaller than most sideboards, so is ideal for rooms tight on space. A side table and coffee table in a similar design are also available should you wish to kit out your whole room in the same way.

They are available to order from Heal’s, although won’t be available for delivery for  approximately another 3 months.

Shuffle Side Table by Mia Hamborg

This year Heal's celebrates 60 years of bringing us the pioneering Scandinavian design that we've come to love them for. To commemorate, this autumn they're treating us with a whole new brood of designers with concepts firmly rooted in the traditions of the modernist era.

This unique Shuffle Side Table by new Heal's designer Mia Hamborg is a real highlight of the Autumn/Winter collection. The piece is inspired by Nordic wooden turning traditions and is given a contemporary twist with the mid century-style colour palate. However, the most innovative feature is that you can actually take the table apart and rebuild the modular pieces in which ever order you'd like. It's a truly original piece that will no doubt become a modern classic.

The Shuffle Side Table is £449 from Heal's. See the website for more details.

The Scandinavian Furniture Poster is taken from an advertisement from the Fifties. It features a typical midcentury chair and table in shades of yellow and blue that are also typical of the period. It is sold framed in a wooden frame.

Splay chair
The Splay oak chair is another 1950s-style design, courtesy of Heal's new Scandinavian design for living range. 

This isn't a design they've plucked from their archive but one that's simply been inspired by the period. Made from oak, with a stylish curved back and topped off with a green wool seat, the chair has the good looks to see it through many more decades to come.  

The chair costs £250.
