Dankotuwa has introduced a new scheme “Personalise your dinnerware”.
The company said it has received requests to personalise the higher end dinner and tea sets with the names, family names or the names of a couple, resulting in the new scheme.
 “We have done this for some wealthy families in India and we have received some requests from celebrities such as cricketers and film stars in India. Most wealthy and influential persons wish to have customised items, sometimes with their initials, or their family names. This is quite a hit with those who entertain with formal dinners with tables laid out for at least a five course meal,” explained Sunil Wijesinha, Chairman and MD of Dankotuwa Porcelain in a press release.
The company will offer this scheme for those buying expensive sets with gold and platinum decorations and will cost Rs 200 per piece to personalise. There are minimum quantities of pieces that need to be personalised since the gold or platinum cost for a few items will be very high. The personalisation could be either in gold or platinum and the customer could choose the lettering style, size and position. This will be available only for the 12-person, 93 piece sets of the rich decorations. Delivery will be within two weeks after the samples are accepted.
The company says that the costs are reasonable and affordable by most of the wealthy Sri Lankans, and Sri Lankan celebrities. “It is not only for those who own Ferraris,” noted Mr Wijesinha, “but at the same time we do not want to make it too common.”
Those interested could contact the Colombo showrooms and discuss their requirements. |
