Restoration Hardware Happening

Restoration Hardware, the upscale home furnishing emporium, is coming to town!

The chain, founded in Eureka in 1979 with 100 stores in 31 states and 6,500 employees, now rebranded RH, is taking over the old Lucca Antiques space in the Old Fire House building on East Valley Road.

Its former longtime store on State Street, near Paseo Nuevo, is being demolished as part of a 30,000-square-foot hotel development.

In the 12 months to October, 2022, sales were $3.721 billion.

Company CEO Gary Friedman, who formerly worked for Williams-Sonoma and lives in our rarefied enclave, did not respond to repeated e-mails.
