BHS (British Home Stores)

BHS (British Home Stores) is a British department store which first opened it's doors in 1928. Known as British Home Stores until 1986, it then merged with Habitat and Mothercare to become part of Storehouse plc, and rebranded as BHS. Over the years it has retailed a range of tableware designs under it's brand, some of which are no doubt made by British potteries and many imported from overseas. They continue to retail tableware today although currently on a much smaller scale than in the past, and with a much higher turnaround of designs.
