Stephen Gordon founded Restoration Hardware in 1980 after he had trouble finding period hardware while restoring a Queen Ann-style house in Eureka, California.
The company went public in 1998 with 47 stores.
Today Restoration Hardware sells upscale home and outdoor furnishings, garden products, bath-ware, hardware, lighting, textiles, and baby and child products through 85 retail and outlet stores in 30 states, the District of Columbia, and Canada.
40% of the company’s sales are through catalog and e-commerce sales.
In 2008 Restoration Hardware was taken private by Catterton Partners and Tower Three Partners and went public again in 2012.
Restoration Hardware has 6500 employees and had $3.76 billion in revenue in 2021.
The company, rebranding as RH, also owns 14 restaurants that are located inside their store locations, including San Francisco, California, Dallas, Texas, and the new location recently opened in Santa Barbara, California.
RH maintains a corporate office in Corte Madera, California.
