About the Item

Made in France Tolmer Paris Arnold Constable & Company was America’s oldest department store, technically founded in 1825. The store itself used 1827 as its founding date, no doubt due to its variable early history, and celebrated its centennial in 1927. Aaron Arnold (1794-1876), a native of the Isle of Wight in southern England, came to America with his wife in 1823. his cousin George A. Hearn (who had immigrated to Philadelphia two years before Arnold) into partnership. At this time, the store was known as Arnold & Hearn; when George Hearn’s son James (1810-1886) joined the firm in 1834 it became known as Arnold, Hearn & Company, until the Hearns parted company with Arnold in 1842 to found their own store, ultimately known as James A. Hearn & Son. Six years earlier, James Mansell Constable (1812-1900), a native of Sussex, England, arrived in the United States, and after a few years of traveling through western New York, called on Arnold in New York and joined the firm, known after the 1842 dissolution with the Hearns, as A. Arnold & Co. As fate would have it, Constable courted, and then married Arnold’s daughter Henrietta in 1844. He became a partner in by 1853, when the store took its ultimate name, Arnold Constable & Company.
