Company Description

Arhaus offers original handcrafted designs at 70+ privately owned and operated store locations in the U.S. and online at arhaus.com. Headquartered in Boston Heights, Ohio, we collaborate with skilled artisans from around the world to create (and recreate) pieces that reflect many cultures, from Italy to Indonesia. The end result is an eclectic mix of designs that are exclusive to our stores and the website. Today, nearly 50 percent the product assortment is made of recycled material—everything from glass, to metals like copper and reclaimed wood from buildings no longer standing and vessels no longer set sail. Timbers are either reclaimed or sustainably sourced. A Port City Called Arhus: The Danish port city Århus (pronounced ohr-HOOSE) inspired the name. John came across Arhus on a map and took an immediate liking. After a few minor modifications, “Arhaus” represented the warmth and luxury of the then (and now) home furnishings offered. Store Footprint: Stores average 20,000+ sq. ft. and are filled with one-of-a-kind handcrafted home furnishings reflective of a distinct global point-of-view. Product Assortment: Sofas, sectionals and statement chairs, outdoor furnishings, dining tables and chairs, buffets and hutches, rugs and specialty floor coverings, bedroom and office furniture, bedding, accent pillows and throws, and seasonal accessories. – less
