Over 200 years have passed since John Harris Heal founded Heal’s in 1810. That’s right, in the same year that Beethoven composed Für Elise and King George III was declared insane, our first store doors opened at 33 Rathbone Place. So began a centuries’-long fascination with quality design.
Today, Heal’s continues its legacy of supporting great design. With stores based across the UK, we’re proud to showcase established brands as well as new and emerging designers. In 2004 we launched the annual Heal’s Discovers collection. The collection promotes the innovative work of new designers and its alumni includes the likes of John Reeves, Anthony Dickens and Sebastian Cox. Our hope is that continuing to champion and commission emerging design talent will lead to a truly innovative collection.
