Homeart was a kitsch national chain of retail stores with outlets in every state in Australia selling mostly homewares, giftware and electrical products. ==History== The origins of the company can be traced back to the eastern Suburbs of Melbourne and the iconic Croydon Stock yards (flea market) in 1970. On 1 August 1979, Mr and Mrs Aart and Amy van Roest's first store to carry the name of Copperart was located in Canterbury Road, Blackburn, Victoria. followed shortly by its 6 other stores that were also in operation at that time. Initially the business sold copper and brass wares from around the world, Grandfather clocks and wall clocks. There is an interesting story of how the company gained its name Copperart (and Its later name of Homeart) Basically it is the material the products were made from (Copper) and the name of the original founder Aart Hence the coming together of the words Copper and Aart (Copperart). Copperart sold mostly copper and brass products, but the company expanded in the 1980s to include a broader range of homewares. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Homeart」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
