Tiffany & Co, the prestigious luxury jeweller, announced their plans to launch their first-ever Blue Box Cafe in Southeast Asia. Set to make its debut in Singapore’s flagship store next month, this move is meant to elevate the brand’s presence within the region.
Slated to open its doors in mid-July, the Blue Box Cafe will take over the top floor of the recently revamped Ion Orchard store. Taking inspiration from its original New York-based Blue Box Cafe, the Singaporean outpost will boast an American-French menu. This gastronomic offering is the brainchild of Julien Royer, renowned chef and owner of Odette, a three-Michelin-starred restaurant.
The Ion Orchard branch of Tiffany & Co has recently undergone a significant facelift and is now the only triplex boutique of the brand in Singapore. The store’s refurbishment began in September of the previous year. Its design shares similarities with Tiffany’s Landmark flagship store in New York, featuring a dynamic light installation by British architect, Hugh Dutton, gracing the store’s facade.
This boutique not only houses the first Tiffany watch salon in Singapore, but it also encompasses private VIP suites, and the Schlumberger Gallery. This exclusive space showcases the works of notable jewellery designer, Jean Schlumberger.
In addition to these offerings, the store also features artworks by ceramic artist Peter Lane and exhibits the Monumental Bronze-Mounted Vase. This historic masterpiece, created in 1898, is the work of Louis Comfort Tiffany, after whom the brand is named.
Yeo Mui Hong, CEO of Orchard Turn Developments, expressed his pride in housing the first Blue Box Cafe in Southeast Asia at Ion Orchard. He affirmed the company’s commitment to enhancing the shopping experiences of its patrons and members. This introduction of the Blue Box Cafe follows the successful opening of a similar cafe earlier this year at Tiffany & Co’s Lee Gardens boutique in Hong Kong.
