″This book draws together many strands of the story of Harrods- its customers, its staff, its place in society and its role in time of war, the regular emergence of new departments, and the fascinating and always changing picture of a building evolving through this century….Here is Harrod’s past and present, but bear in mind that we are still writing the future chapters of a story which combines all the elements of drama and glamour. Don’t let anyone ever tell you business is boring- here is the romance of retailing.” (Excerpt from foreword by the Chairman of Harrods Limited Mr. Mohamed Al Fayed)

Harrods is the most famous department store in the world. Its name is synonymous with quality and first-class retailing. Representing the very best of Britain, it is in a class of its own. The story of Harrods is the story of a tiny grocery shop which rapidly grew into a national institution admired by the entire world. This book is a glorious tribute to that remarkable store, splendidly illustrated with a wealth of previously unpublished material from the Harrod’s archives. In every chapter of the book, past and present are drawn together to portray a different aspect of Harrods, reflecting the gradual evolution of a store deeply rooted in the past.

A delight to browse through and a pleasure to read, this book captures the special magic that is Harrods.

Sean Callery is a professional writer, with a background in journalism and retailing. His previous books include The First Time Father and A History of Tennis.

Love the shelves. Nice touch to my bathroom. Easy enough to install. They're not holding anything too heavy so can't speak too much on that but they do have a nice width.

Good for light stuff
Color: Black, Size: 15 inches, Color: Black, Size: 15 inches
Good product. Very light though and if it’s in dry wall won’t hold something really heavy. I don’t think it would hold 20 pounds just light. I put over my washer and dryer and put one right on top that way I can put heavy stuff on that side without it weighing down and being ripped out of the wall. I won’t be putting heavy stuff on the right side I used 4 pieces and the wall is about 60-62 inches long

Perfect sized floating shelves
Color: Black, Size: 24 inches, Color: Black, Size: 24 inches
These are great and the perfect width. I had my contractor install them because my tile had to have a hole drilled into it. I love that it looks seemless and flat to the tile. New bathroom renovation. I am very pleased. Holds a few towels also candles and a little plant with extra space. Perfect for a minimal look or if you have a small bathroom. Color was spot on.

Not What I Expected
Color: White, Size: 32 inches
This set of floating shelves was a disappointment. They’re advertised as holding 20 pounds, but mine began to bend with barely 10 pounds on them. All the screws and anchors were installed tightly and correctly, yet the metal brackets still warped under minimal weight. The shelves look fine on the wall, but I’m leaving them up only because I don’t want to patch a dozen holes—not because they’re sturdy. Definitely not the quality or strength I expected.
