V&A looks forward to BLE

The Victoria & Albert Museum is one of over 180 companies exhibiting at Brand Licensing Europe, which returns to London’s ExCel November 17-19. The V&A stand at BLE will showcase Reflect, comprising stunning new tableware in partnership with designer Richard Brendon.

Lauren Sizeland, head of licensing and business development at the V&A states:Richard Brendon has collaborated with the V&A to create a range of exquisite bone china, consisting of four striking saucers to pair with his signature gold and platinum reflective teacups, as well as four decorative mugs.”

In the run-up to BLE, Lauren admits: “Having had to work virtually over the last year has been an interesting, and positive, experience. However, there is nothing like meeting face-to-face. We are very much looking forward to delivering the benefits and features of V&A licensing at BLE and connecting with leading retailers and manufacturers.”
