EXPLORA JOURNEYS UNVEILS FIRST-EVER BUCCELLATI JEWELLERY BOUTIQUE AT SEA ON EXPLORA II

Explora Journeys

Geneva, Switzerland, 28 August, 2024 – Explora Journeys announced today the highly anticipated opening of the exclusive Buccellati boutique on board EXPLORA II. This luxurious boutique, the first of its kind at sea, offers guests an unparalleled opportunity to discover and acquire Buccellati's exquisite jewellery.

The collaboration between Explora Journeys and Buccellati represents a harmonious union of two brands dedicated to providing the pinnacle of luxury and sophistication. EXPLORA II, a ship that epitomises elegance at sea, found a perfect partner in Buccellati, a beacon of Italian artistry and heritage. Renowned for its meticulous craftsmanship and revival of ancient goldsmithing techniques, Buccellati has been a symbol of Italian excellence for over a century.

Founded in Milan by Mario Buccellati and nurtured on the creative direction by his descendants Gianmaria and Andrea, Buccellati is celebrated for creating masterpieces that are not merely jewellery but works of art. Each piece encapsulates the brand’s dedication to tradition, innovation, and timeless beauty, making the brand a fitting choice for EXPLORA II’s luxurious setting.

Koray Savas, Vice-President Hotel Operations Explora Journeys, comments:The opening of Buccellati's boutique on EXPLORA II represents a significant milestone in our commitment to luxury and refinement. Both Buccellati and Explora Journeys share a dedication to elegance, creativity, and cultural enrichment. This partnership not only enhances the shopping experience on board but also enriches the cultural and artistic ambiance of EXPLORA II, inviting guests to immerse themselves in the world of fine Italian craftsmanship.”

At the Buccellati boutique on board EXPLORA II guests can discover and purchase some of the world’s most coveted jewelry. The selection of Buccellati as the exclusive jewelry boutique on EXPLORA II underscores the ship’s commitment to providing an exceptional luxury experience.

Guests will find the Opera Tulle collection, which elegantly combines ancient goldsmithing techniques with modern sophistication, combining semi-precious stones and enamels. The Macri collection, inspired by Maria Cristina Buccellati, Communication Director and daughter of Gianmaria, features richly textured gold and diamond pieces, showcasing intricate engravings and elegant bombé elements. The Blossoms collection by Lucrezia Buccellati offers jewellery inspired by floral designs. Expanding this theme, the Blossoms Colour collection introduces vibrant semi-precious stones and gold-plated bezels, incorporating colourful stones and brown diamonds into pendants and bracelets.

The Buccellati boutique will be available to guests aboard EXPLORA II starting from her maiden journey on 16 September 2024, departing from Civitavecchia, Italy.

On board EXPLORA II, guests can expect an unparalleled shopping experience where luxury meets elegance, with exclusive boutiques featuring iconic brands. Each brand, celebrated for its exceptional craftsmanship, offers the finest timepieces and jewellery, perfectly embodying Explora Journeys' European heritage and dedication to excellence.
