Graff is shining brighter than ever before in Harrods. One year after launching a boutique within The Fine Jewellery Room at the famed London department store, the brand has opened a new, expanded location. Francois Graff, Chief Executive Officer at Graff, raves that the 1,242-square-foot space “will enable our clientele to further experience the exemplary craftsmanship incorporated into our exceptional jewels and innovative timepieces.” But icy diamonds and vivid gemstones aren’t the only eye-catching materials customers will encounter. While brushed gold showcases and golden dichroic glass mirrors line the boutique’s walls, Cipollino, Pentelikon, and Verde Assoluto marble aid in creating a striking, highly-polished floor. Above it all glows a light fixture made of hundreds of individually hand-blown glass spheres in gold, bronze, and silver tones. The entire stunning sight was designed by Graff’s in-house Monaco interior design team.
