Nambé possesses a certain mystique. Partly it's our very name and our
connections to the landscape, culture and history of our origins. Nambé
(pronounced na:m'bei) was christened for a tiny village near Santa Fe in
Northern New Mexico where the company was founded in 1951.
But there's more to it, this mystique, which makes Nambé the "lifestyle" brand
valued by people who love simple, elegant designs and love to share them with
others.
The most distinguishing characteristic of Nambé is that our company is devoted
as passionately to form as it is to function. Many early Nambé designs
(Tri-Corner and Butterfly bowls, for instance) still sell briskly. This
dedication to design defines Nambé. Timeless art you can use every day.
Early on, discerning buyers and customers of prestigious stores like
Neiman-Marcus, Saks 5th Avenue, Bloomingdale's and Gump's discovered Nambé.
Museums added Nambé to their collections and exhibits. For its beauty, quality
and heirloom value, Nambé became a favorite gift, especially for brides. The
collection grew and became a world brand.
In 1998, we introduced the collection of Nambé full-lead crystal, in 2001, Nambé
lighting, and in 2003, Nambé porcelain. Additional collections and other
exciting news about Nambé are imminent. Sign up for our email newsletters and
we'll keep you posted.
