M.H. Alshaya Co. will open the first Pottery Barn home furnishings store in Kuwait on June 16, ameinfo.com reported Monday. A member of the Williams-Sonoma Inc. portfolio of brands, the 1,600-square-meter Pottery Barn store will be located in the Phase 1 area of the Avenues mall.

Pottery Barn made its Middle East debut earlier this year with a home furnishings store in Dubai that M.H. Alshaya opened in March. Franchise retailer M.H. Alshaya has more than 750 stores throughout the Middle East.

At the Kuwait store, two Design Studios, one located on each floor of the bi-level store, will provide destinations for customers to sit and discuss their furniture needs and plan their space with specially trained associates. Each Design Studio houses fabric, wood and leather swatches so customers can see all the choices available to them.

Furniture collection cards are also available to customers free of charge. These cards represent each Pottery Barn furniture collection and include product information such as measurements and all available finishes for the specific collection.
