Robert Tateossian at the new Tateossian shop at Harry Rosen, Yorkdale

North America's first Tateossian shop has opened inside the Harry Rosen store at Toronto's Yorkdale Shopping Centre. The founder, Robert Tateossian, was in attendance for the shop's opening on November 16th.

For those unfamiliar, Tateossian is a London (England)-based designer and retailer of men's cufflinks and jewellery. Tateossian's designs have become so popular, in fact, that that he's become known as the 'King of Cufflinks' among fans. The shop also sells Tateossian watches, bracelets, tie clips and more.

The brand is available in over 60 countries and in some of the world's most prestigious stores. It's carried at selected Holt Renfrew and Harry Rosen stores in Canada, as well as at selected Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale's stores.

Harry Rosen's Yorkdale store has been undergoing an extensive renovation and much of it is completed. The entire store is expected to be finished by February 2014.

Thank you to ACT7 of Urban Toronto for notifying us of this store opening.
