Tiffany & Co announced plans for a July 2008 opening of a store in the coastal city of Qingdao, China.
The approximately 2,000-square-foot store will open in Hisense Plaza, the city's premier destination for luxury shopping, located at 117, Ao Men Road, in the Shi Nan District.
Qingdao is famous as a summer resort, with a strong cultural heritage and scenic setting. Tiffany's new store in Hisense Plaza will be conveniently located within walking distance of five-star hotels and the city's yacht club.
"We are thrilled to open our doors in the elegant Hisense Plaza," said Rebecca Ip, Tiffany vice president of greater China, "and we welcome residents and visitors alike to discover Tiffany's heritage of design excellence and superior service that is unique among the world's premier jewelers."
The new store will offer a range of TIFFANY & CO. collections, including the jeweler's celebrated diamonds in engagement rings and jewels of ultimate glamour; sterling silver and fine jewelry; the signature designs of Paloma Picasso, Jean Schlumberger and Frank Gehry; watches; gifts and accessories.
Qingdao is Tiffany's eighth location in China. The jeweler currently operates two stores each in Beijing and Shanghai, and one store each in Tianjin, Shenyang and Chengdu.
