Dankotuwa Porcelain PLC, renowned for its luxurious and elegant porcelain tableware, unveiled its latest showroom at shop no. 51, on the third floor of the upmarket shopping complex of One Galle Face – Shangri-La, Colombo 01. Located within the business hub of Colombo, within walking distance of some of Sri Lanka’s most visited landmarks, including the Dutch Hospital, World Trade Center and closer to the upcoming Port City, Dankotuwa Porcelain’s new store provides an upscale shopping atmosphere and unparalleled service unlike any other within the country. 
The all-new Dankotuwa Porcelain Showroom displays the very best of Dankotuwa Porcelain’s fine Sri Lankan tableware and giftware, housing an array of modern and elegant products including the famous Ivory Collection, 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 specialised hand painted porcelain items such as jewellery boxes, souvenirs, designer mugs and much, much more. This makes it the ideal store for purchasing unique products to serve as one-of-a-kind gifts for that daring traveller, discerning artist or simply for family use.
“With the launch of the Dankotuwa Porcelain Showroom at One Galle Face Mall, our consumers now have access to a fantastic range of upmarket, inspiring options to satisfy both their gifting purposes and tableware needs,” stated Dankotuwa Porcelain PLC Chief Executive Officer Channa Gunawardana. “With a range of beautiful products on display, I am sure that both international and Sri Lankan consumers will now be spoilt for choices and have a memorable retail experience when shopping at the all new Dankotuwa store,” Gunawardana concluded.
The newest Dankotuwa Showroom at the One Galle Face Mall, Shangri-La will also offer a range of products from Royal Fernwood – a subsidiary of Dankotwa Porcelain – that is renown in Sri Lanka for quality colour, decorated porcelain tableware and figurine ornaments. Royal Fernwood Porcelain is a well-respected brand that has made significant headway in international markets and is more youthful and vibrant than Dankotuwa Porcelain, which is a much more premium offering known worldwide for its remarkable whiteness that radiates a sense of pristine beauty.
Reputed for their coloured and youthful designs, Royal Fernwood Porcelain enjoys the heightened value addition through a wide range of extremely popular designs and decorations that include in-glaze, on-glaze, under-glaze, hand painted, etching and microwave-safe designs including gold and platinum. Catering to customer demand, Royal Fernwood has been successful in developing new products using coloured glazes to match the body, which is a unique achievement for porcelain tableware. Body shapes are another competitive aspect that RFPL has excelled in, to retain and attract customers across the globe that have diverse artistic taste in porcelain products. 
Commenting regarding the opening of this all new store, Ambeon Capital PLC and Ambeon Holdings PLC Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer Murali Prakash stated, “Sri Lanka’s iconic porcelain brand Dankotuwa Porcelain now aims to give every 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.”
