Birmingham city centre store - sadly long gone

[GillyGee]

There used to be a store in the High Street in Birmingham City centre. Opposite what is now the Pavilions and only accessed by an escalator, next to Barclays Bank
It sold prints, china, cushions and other household stuff price pitched between Ikea and Habitat, and I think it began with the letter r. An early answer would be really appreciated

It WAS the Reject shop, only retailing in Australia now I think - there's a shop in London that sells pots, but that's about it.

I've just asked my good lady wife and she said the shop was called The Kitchen Reject Shop - she said she used to get some really good linen tea towels from there at a fraction of the cost from the linen shop, great for polishing glasses.
