Balzac chair by Matthew Hilton reduced at Heal’s

October 12, 2010 By Rachel Newcombe 21 Comments

Designer Balzac chair by Matthew Hilton in Heal's sale Fabulous Balzac armchair from Heal's

A fantastic piece of contemporary furniture design, the Balzac armchair is not only pleasing to look at, but comfortable to sit and relax on too.

Designed by Matthew Hilton, the chair is made from a solid beech frame with steel springs and elasticated webbing. It’s covered in multi-density foam with feather cushions to aid comfort and provide medium to soft support. It’s then finished off to a high standard using soft, full-aniline leather upholstery.

The leather naturally differs from piece to piece, so each armchair has its own unique characteristics.

Heal’s sell the Balzac chair and matching footstool in various colourways, including Utah brown leather and Utah russet leather – the latter being a perfect shade for an autumnal colour scheme.

If you’ve been hankering after a Matthew Hilton Balzac chair, then now could be the time to investigate further as all the Balzac chairs and footstools are currently on offer at Heal’s, with savings ranging from £100 – £400 per piece of furniture.

      Mark, the times of the blog replies don’t seem to be working and I have no idea if they are still valid. I’m very interested in a second hand balzac with ottoman. Please email me hywelpthomas@hotmail.com. Thanks a lot and looking forward to your reply.

    Mark: I have one but it has (today) been wrecked accidentally (involves a cat – don’t ask).

    Would be very interested in your sale item. Reply here if still up and we can find a way to contact perhaps (I am new to this site)

    I have two armchairs with matching ottomans in dark brown (utah?) leather. Four years old, worn in. Ridiculously comfortable. Would like £2,500 for all four items.

    Hi

    I’d certainly be interested in a pre-owned Balzac, if Mark or others has one for sale?

    Thanks

    What does everyone think of the Stanley chair? I love Matthew Hilton furniture and this chair looks quite different from his usual style: https://casefurniture.com/contemporary-furniture-collections/matthew-hilton-furniture/
