About Harriet & Rose
Founded in 2019 by Harriet Rouse, Harriet & Rose is a Jersey founded independent gift shop and gift delivery service, originally launching online in 2019. Founded in Jersey, for Jersey, we always knew that our focus was going to be bringing something a little bit different to the island we’re lucking enough to call home. In 2021 we opened our first premises at 71 King Street, St Helier.
Offering a corporate gifting service alongside the online and physical shop, Harriet & Rose is here to take all the hassle out of finding an original present while living on an island where fog, customs and courier companies sometimes conspire to make it hard to buy something original… especially if you (and they’re not saying you do) leave it to the last minute. Need to send something to a loved one in Jersey and you live off island? We are always happy to help, and can deliver to any Jersey address. Please do feel free to give us a call on 01534 744 066 if you need any help at all.
Since throwing open our online doors in May 2019, Harriet & Rose has established itself as a business that supports small, supports local, with an extensive range of gifts available from local creative businesses. From new babies, to birthdays; care packages and gift hampers to anniversaries, the website is always evolving, always looking for new gifts to stock, and always planning ahead. That way, we’re doing what you need us to do before you even know what that is.
The central St Helier shop is always (always!) evolving with new stock landing weekly. Whilst it doesn’t always make it onto the website (some things are too bulky to send), you can be sure of a warm welcome, with something new to catch your eye.
We support local
Jersey is an island bursting with talented creative businesses, and we work closely with them to ensure that we are offering the best our island has on our website. We also stock selected pieces from the UK and further afield. If we can source it in Jersey we will, but if we can’t we’ll get it here for you. What you can be assured of, is that we will not import goods if they are being crafted in the island. It’s important to support small and local businesses, and we’re proud to be part of our brilliant small business community.
By shopping in small quantities (with small makers), Harriet & Rose guarantee our stock is always changing with weekly updates that ensure you'll always be able to find a new and original gift you've not given before. Simple right?
Meet the team
Harriet - Owner
Harriet sold her bridal accessories business shortly after relocating to Jersey in 2016. Having run the online business for five years she not only understands the importance of impeccable customer service and an easy online shopping experience, she has a genuine passion for retail and sourcing unique and original products (as well as creating a few too).
Spotting a gap in the market for an online boutique specialising in original and bespoke gifts delivering only in island, in 2018 she set about sourcing products and founded Harriet & Rose - a business founded in Jersey, for Jersey.
With her wealth of experience as a designer and maker alongside her business knowledge, she's passionate about bringing a different shopping experience to Jersey. With all the upside of the high street, along with a website that can be shopped from 24/7, Harriet chooses every single item that is on the site herself, and uploads them too, so that you have all the information that you need to shop confidently.
She cares about supporting small, creative businesses, and offering a curated product range that you can shop from the comfort of your home or desk as well as in person, taking away those last minute panic buys and in 2020 founded The Small Business Pop Up which ran for 12 weeks at Liberty Wharf bringing together small creative businesses and artisans under one roof. It was after the success of this Pop-Up run that she started looking for longer term premises. The rest - as they say - is history.
Verity - Manager
Verity joined the Harriet & Rose team shortly in early 2023 as a supervisor, and became manger in July the same year. Solely responsible for all of our beautiful and seasonal window murals, her love of fungi (true story) has led to a huge increase in the presence of mushroom related stock. And we are here for it!
When she’s not at work she can be found out with the Franklin (the dog) and Alex (the husband), or drawing.
Finn the dog
Finn is a year-old Lakeland Terrier/Poodle Cross otherwise known as a Lakeydoodle or Lakeypoo. We just call him Finn.
He can be found in the shop on some weekdays, and is the most popular member of the team by far. He’s happy to share the shop with other dogs, so please do always feel welcome to bring them along. We have water and treats available (strictly for the dogs, not their humans), but ask that you keep your dog on a lead. Lots of glass and ceramics, and Finn had to be retired from shelf stacking after a few too many breakages.
