Dubai, UAE, 13th October 2016:  French porcelain manufacturer Bernardaud is proud to announce the opening of its first boutique in the UAE, officially inaugurated yesterday at The Dubai Mall in the presence of Michel Bernardaud, Chairman and CEO.

For more than 150 years, Bernardaud has been synonymous with Limoges porcelain where it is still manufactured. In its workshops, Bernardaud mixes tradition and innovation to expand from tableware to home furnishing (light fixtures, furnitures…) and to create bespoke shapes and decors for clients, hotels and restaurants.  To ensure that porcelain continues to be an everyday luxury, Bernardaud calls on designers and artists to explore the possibilities of this refined material with unsuspected properties and applications.

The new boutique offers Middle Eastern customers the best in porcelain. A diversified range of products and collections will be sold, giving luxury lovers and connoisseurs in Dubai a wider selection of designs. Located on the first floor of the Dubai Mall, the boutique is designed to allow everyone to move and explore the collections on display in a white, subtle lighting, pure and simple decor.

“We are very happy to be present in Dubai. Our local customers will love the experience of using porcelain everyday and for all occasions. Bernardaud is famous for the quality, creativity and diversity of its collections, which range from traditional to luxurious designs with incrustation to ultra-contemporary styles. Since we offer a broad selection of high-quality goods, our customers are sure to find something that appeals to them.” Michel Bernardaud, Chairman and CEO

Founded in Limoges in 1863 and still family-owned, Bernardaud has always striven for excellence, quality and precision. Working in a field that is perpetually evolving, Bernardaud remains in the elite of design and innovation, developing technologies that push back the technical limits of the art of porcelain making. Each collection, piece of furniture, lighting creation or decorative object, that bears the Bernardaud signature brings the grace of simple luxury to everyday life and demonstrates that, after two thousand years, porcelain continues to prove its worth as an exceptional material.
