PB=they dont have pottery and its not in any way barnlike
RH=they have actual hardware but everything is made like shit and only suitable for gift-giving

What about Crate & Barrel?

They seem to occur on opposing corners much like competing fast food franchises

Confession: I own two rather nice chairs from RH. It was one store of many that I looked at when out shopping for furniture, and it happened to have something I liked more than what I found elsewhere. (Ironically, I later saw these same chairs in a photograph of a multi-millionaire's house in a New York magazine article. I don't know if that means I am living beyond my means or that multi-millionaire is simply cheap.)

Did the J. Peterman catalog sell housewares? RH is operating from the same Ralph Lauren wannabe attitude.

Restoration has a nice American Arts & Crafts aesthetic and they sell cute gadgets and actually useful chemical products and things. I want the shortwave radio they sell. PB is inoffensive but shoddy.
