Waterford, Ireland, Jan 25, 2010 – To celebrate the sparkle of a new beginning for the world’s finest crystal brand, WWRD Holdings Limited today announced plans to open a new Waterford Crystal Prestige Manufacturing Facility, Retail Outlet and Visitor Centre in June 2010.
Located in the brand’s namesake city of Waterford, Ireland, the high-tech facility will exclusively produce 40,000 luxury hand-crafted crystal pieces using traditional artisan methods for their most discerning customers and for the thousands who will come to visit the new facility. In addition to serving as a brand laboratory for innovation and modern design, Waterford Crystal Factory Tours will be open to the public seven days a week and all year round.
The Waterford Crystal factory tour will leave visitors staring spell bound as they are taken through a visual journey of over 225 years of glass making and are shown how each individual piece of crystal is created by highly skilled craftsmen using unique and traditional methods.
Visitors will also be able to marvel at a replica of the Waterford Times Square Ball without traveling across the pond and will be impressed by the varying exhibitions whether it be Sport, Statement Design or a favorite by many – the Faces and Places exhibit which showcases specially commissioned Waterford Crystals pieces that have been presented to famous Celebrities, Presidents and dignities!
If that wasn’t enough, the world’s largest display of Waterford Crystal will be showcased in the Retail Experience, including pieces from world famous designers such as John Rocha, Michael Aram and Jasper Conran!
The state-of-the-art Waterford Crystal Visitor Centre is located 2 miles from the city centre on the N25 Cork Road in Waterford, Ireland. Factory tours are open to the public all year round, Monday to Sunday. Guided Tours are also available seven days a week.
