    Secoo and Italia’s Richard Ginori tie up in partnership

    Luxury retail platform Secoo has announced a partnership with Italian porcelain manufacturer Richard Ginori exclusively for the Chinese market.

    The heritage brand, founded almost 300 years ago, is one of the region’s most prestigious manufacturers of fine porcelain tableware and artistic porcelain.

    Li Rixue, Secoo’s founder and CEO, said: “The entry of Richard Ginori carried out our business strategy of further tapping into China’s robust luxury consumer market demand. With our consistent focus on both the diversity and quality of the products and services that we offer to our customers, we are confident that we are well positioned to capture emerging opportunities driven by the consumption upgrade in China and unlock values to our customers.”

    The move serves as part of Secoo’s strategy to become a leading premium lifestyle platform and luxury e-commerce site.

    Secoo customers can select from a wide range of porcelains offered online and collect the product from the brand’s offline experience centers in nine major Chinese cities.

  • Gucci Decor line to feature Richard Ginori porcelain

    Gucci Decor line to feature Richard Ginori porcelain

    A new Gucci Decor line to be launched in September will feature tableware and candle holders by Gucci-owned heritage porcelain brand Richard Ginori, upholstered dining chairs, metal trays and folding tables, folding screens and decorative cushions.

    Working with Florentine porcelain specialist Richard Ginori, founded in 1735, Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele has designed a range of patterned crockery featuring a green-and-white herbarium decoration. There are also idiosyncratic candle holders with Gucci patterns, such as geometric chevrons and the talismanic “eye” design. Animals from the Gucci Garden – bees, butterflies and cockerel heads – are rendered in porcelain in 3D topping the lids of pots. Small incense holders feature 3D stag beetles, and bees support incense sticks.

    The collection includes scents in the form of candles and incense: Inventum (ancient damask rose blended with Taif rose), Fumus (birch, orange leaves and beeswax), Herbosum (tomato leaves, aromatic plants, long grass, basil and lemongrass) and Esotericum (Seville oranges, jasmine, leather and salt).

    Gucci Decor will have a progressive global roll-out in Gucci flagship stores, online and at selected specialty stores. Prices start from $194 for a candle, rising to $29,760 for a screen.
