Dallas—Bachendorf’s is opening a new location in Dallas’ Knox Street neighborhood this winter.
The more than 2,200-square-foot store was designed in partnership with Droese Raney Architecture and will include a concept that is a first for the retailer, a rotating designer residency.
This location will serve as a dynamic showcase for rotating residencies, explained Bachendorf’s, as it is slated to offer a curated selection of rare jewelry designs and bespoke pieces available exclusively through each residency.
The residency will highlight one designer at a time. More information about the concept will be available soon as well as the announcement of the first residency.
Bachendorf’s added that the store’s design reimagines the traditional jewelry boutique as a refined destination where luxury retail and hospitality unite.
The storefront will feature a series of arches, framing views to draw visitors into the space.
Once inside, there will be arched niches, warm wood finishes, natural stones, and bronze detailing, all chosen to create a warm and elegant atmosphere that reflects the retailer’s heritage.
The jewelry will be shown in freestanding display cases that are arranged throughout the space to encourage exploration and discovery.
Bachendorf’s said it designed this location as both a retail destination and an event-focused gathering space as the location will have a full-service bar.
The store will also host intimate experiences with designers, collectors, and brand partners to bring the stories behind exceptional craftsmanship to life and create an environment where each visit offers something new.
“For nearly fifty years, our family has focused on building relationships with our clients and bringing them exceptional pieces that stand the test of time,” said Lawrence Bock, president of Bachendorf’s.
“This new Knox Street concept allows us to honor that legacy while offering unique collections in a more dynamic environment, one where guests can experience rare designs, meet remarkable brands, and return often to discover what’s new.”
The new store will mark Bachendorf’s fifth location in the Dallas metropolitan area.
