Heal's made its name as a furniture maker through the Arts and Crafts movement of the late 19th century and the Blythe range has been designed to capture that same ethos of functional, quaker inspired furniture. Designed and developed in-house, the Blythe Compact Bedside Table, taking its name from London’s iconic Blythe House home to the Heal’s archive at the V&A, is made from solid oak and oak veneer that has been finished in a clear matt lacquer to protect the wood while also providing a smooth finish. Every element of this design has been considered with curved wooden drawer runners, arched silhouette and Heal’s wooden cuff on the handle demonstrate the craftsmanship at the heart of the range.
