The A&G Group and Harvey Nichols are delighted to announce that they have joined forces to open two exclusive in-store Garrard boutiques, in Manchester and Knightsbridge.
Garrard Manchester is expected to open Autumn 2003, to coincide with the opening of the new Harvey Nichols. Knightsbridge will open in September 2003, as part of the Harvey Nichols Ground Floor redevelopment.
Garrard, the British classic avant-garde jeweller, will form a natural partnership with Harvey Nichols, which has always presented the latest in innovative design and cutting edge brands.
Garrard will occupy a key space within the Ground Floors of Harvey Nichols in both London and Manchester, with boutiques of 40 and 50 square meters respectively. These will showcase the most popular Garrard collections; including diamonds, silver, gifts and precious accessories. The stores, created by British designer Tom Bartlett, will incorporate many of the stunning features of the new Garrard flagship store at 24 Albemarle Street, London.
Garrard was launched in London in 1735 and, as a result of its superlative quality and craftsmanship, has enjoyed royal patronage from the beginning. It served as the Crown Jeweller for over 150 years and remains the home of the Crown Jeweller today. Under the creative direction of Jade Jagger Garrard has redefined classic and new styles in jewellery, combining the most precious materials and contemporary styling whilst reflecting the history of the brand.
Gianluca Brozzetti, Group CEO of A&G, says of the partnership, “Since opening, Garrard has seen interest in its products grow on a monthly basis amongst clients, press and celebrities. This collaboration with Harvey Nichols, one of the world’s most prestigious retailers, further reinforces the appeal of the brand.”
Joseph Wan, Chief Executive, Harvey Nichols responded, “Defining a new era in jewellery, watches, silver and accessories, Garrard is set to restore its name as one of the most glamorous jewellers in the UK for society and style leaders and perfectly matches the philosophy of Harvey Nichols.”
As part of its plan to start introducing the brand in the United States, Garrard has also confirmed the opening of a suite on the 7th floor at 720 5th Avenue in New York this summer, which will bring the US a private shopping experience in advance of a major store launch in New York.
