Berluti has relocated its boutique within Nagoya Sakae Mitsukoshi, welcoming customers in a refreshed setting. The spacious 94-square-meter store adopts the maison's latest concept, expressing a world where heritage and modernity come together.
The new boutique's open two-sided facade gives it a striking presence within the department store. The exterior reflects the exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive aesthetic that Berluti has carried forward over the years. Custom ceramic tiles, shaped after the silhouette of the shoe that symbolizes the maison, are hand-finished with patina one by one, creating a memorable scene that embodies Berluti's signature style. The windows display a carefully selected collection, drawing visitors into the refined world of the maison.
Stepping inside, the first thing that catches the eye is the "Focus Wall," which showcases the maison's iconic creations. Beside it stands the signature "Patina Bar," finished in emerald onyx. The hand-patinated counter reflects the technique and tradition behind Berluti's patina craftsmanship. Each of these details expresses an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and the maison's distinctive approach to elevating leather into art.
Drawing inspiration from its Parisian heritage, the new boutique embodies an elegance and innovation that transcends eras, along with a spirit of exceptional craftsmanship. Architecture, interior, and collection come together in harmony, inviting customers into a uniquely Berluti experience.
Inside, refined interiors and specially crafted furniture let customers browse the collection in a relaxed, open atmosphere. Displays finished down to the smallest detail highlight the appeal of each creation, letting visitors feel the brand's aesthetic sensibility and craftsmanship throughout the space.
The store is laid out so customers can take their time exploring Berluti's diverse collection. Leather goods and small leather goods are displayed on the right, while shoes, the origin of the Berluti maison, are shown on the left. Further back, a calm area is set aside for browsing ready-to-wear at a relaxed pace. Each category flows naturally into the next, deepening the sense of the maison's world as customers move through the space.
The interior is composed of a refined harmony of materials, colors, and textures. Warm wood is paired with rare stones such as emerald onyx and Madre Perla, alongside quality wall finishes, textiles, and custom-made furniture used throughout. Each material carries both inherited heritage and a contemporary sensibility. Leather, the brand's signature material, is used generously throughout the store, quietly telling the story of its trusted craftsmanship.
At the center of the boutique sits the symbolic "Ring," entirely finished in leather. This space, which embodies Berluti's concept, is the special heart of the store's personalized services, including shoe fittings.
Around it are club chairs designed exclusively for Berluti. Combining an elegant presence with comfortable seating, they create an elevated fitting experience. The leather-upholstered chairs are also hand-patinated by skilled artisans, with attention to every detail reflecting the maison's distinctive aesthetic.
The new Berluti Nagoya Sakae Mitsukoshi boutique is a special place that embodies contemporary luxury. Every detail of the store carries the maison's heritage, craftsmanship, and spirit of innovation. Within a refined setting shaped by carefully selected materials and custom-made furniture, visitors can experience the craftsmanship, aesthetic sensibility, and passion for leather that Berluti has long cherished.
