RTH

RTH was founded in 2013 in Los Angeles by Rene Holguin as a small lifestyle-and-design boutique on La Cienega Boulevard that became one of the defining post-2010 American curated lifestyle retail operations, occupying retail space in the West Hollywood design corridor that anchors the broader Los Angeles design-and-craft conversation. The RTH premise—that Los Angeles needed a retail anchor that combined Western-American craft, vintage ranch and rodeo culture, broader American design heritage, and the kind of curatorial sensibility that the broader LA design retail ecosystem wasn't delivering—proved out commercially through the 2010s. The RTH vocabulary built up around the in-house RTH product line—custom leather goods, hand-finished candles, ceramic-and-stone home objects, Western-influenced silver jewelry, hand-woven textiles—plus a curated multi-brand mix that includes vintage and contemporary craft objects, design objects from American and Mexican craft producers, and the brand's broader investment in West Coast-and-Mexican craft pipelines. The store's curatorial discipline—deeply personal buying, integrated café-and-events programming, no fast-fashion compromises—built a customer base that treats RTH as the defining Los Angeles lifestyle-and-design retail reference point. RTH operates from its La Cienega Los Angeles flagship plus a smaller satellite location and a robust e-commerce platform. The brand's customer base—heavily skewed toward Los Angeles's design-industry, architecture, and creative-adjacent professionals—treats RTH as the editorial anchor for the LA design-and-craft conversation. For Los Angeles customers building a lifestyle-and-design-anchored wardrobe through the post-2013 era, RTH has been one of the defining retail destinations alongside the broader Los Angeles curated design retail network.
