Dankotuwa Porcelain PLC, renowned for its luxurious and elegant porcelain tableware, unveiled its latest showroom, in the upmarket shopping complex of Crescat Boulevard, Colombo 03.

Located within the heart of Colombo, the Crescat Boulevard is known to house world-renown brands and is regularly patronized by customers who are keen on an international shopping experience. Dankotuwa Porcelain's all new luxurious store is said to provide an upscale shopping atmosphere and unparalleled service unlike any other within the country.

The all-new Dankotuwa Porcelain Showroom at Crescat Boulevard displays the very best of Dankotuwa Porcelain’s fine Sri Lankan tableware and giftware, housing an array of modern and elegant products, thus giving consumers a hands-on opportunity to experience world-class tableware exclusively from Dankotuwa Porcelain. In addition to this, the Showroom also houses exclusive collection of giftware including porcelain elephants, vases and plaques, as well as specialized hand painted porcelain items such as jewelry boxes and much, much more. This makes it the ideal store for purchasing unique products to serve as one-of-a-kind gifts.

Speaking at the inauguration event, the Chief Guest for the event, Murali Prakash, Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer – Ambeon Capital PLC and Ambeon Holdings PLC, stated, “Sri Lanka’s iconic porcelain brand Dankotuwa Porcelain now aims to give every Sri Lankan consumer a memorable retail experience when shopping for high-quality, reliable porcelain, satisfying their various tableware needs. By transforming the brand and expanding Dankotuwa Porcelain’s retail distribution, the Ambeon Group, of which Dankotuwa Porcelain is a part, intends to increase customer access to a luxurious shopping experience, which is also uniquely Sri Lankan, thereby helping to inspire a higher quality of life.”

This new store will also offer a range of products from Royal Fernwood – a subsidiary of Dankotwa Porcelain - that is renown in Sri Lanka for quality color, decorated porcelain tableware and figurine ornaments.

I am pleased to personally invite all our loyal customers to visit our store, and experience for themselves the luxuriousness of porcelain giftware, presented to them on a platter in a truly international setting,” added Dr. Narangoda.
