RH **
RH, Restoration Hardware Holdings Inc, is a retailing company offering home furnishing products.
How would it feel
to be known by initials,
by your brand,
the RH effect,
the H.D. effect,
the FDR effect,
the E.T. effect?
RH broadcasts
beauty, celebrates craft.
RH letters salute
artisanal, handmade,
grains and knots
present the individual,
the unique,
reveal the caring
process RH promises.
I wonder if
I could scratch initials,
mine, upon those rich
crafted planks.
Might I autograph and
ultimately claim the table?
Could I be known only as
who I initial myself to be?
Will there be no other
signature needed? No other
description, just this RH effect,
clean lines, visible grain,
simplicity, warm minimalism,
this mix makes
RH interesting and soothing,
akin to my words,
both of us will calm you,
complete you, RH and
my mix of hard surfaces
soft textures, instant visual interest,
a feeling of quiet luxury,
how you find yourself feeling
as this poem
ends, probably not even needing
me to sign it.

the BLS effect
Designed by John Birch of New York City, Wyeth showcases the distinctive grain and one-of-a-kind beauty of white oak. Inspired by elements of African tribal design, the silhouettes are imbued with a sense of quiet luxury.
