Mario Luca Giusti Dubai — Synthetic Crystal, Reimagined
We’re launching our first premium Italian-brands collection on Amprio Milano with a clear hero: Mario Luca Giusti. Explore the crystal-look brilliance of the Mario Luca Giusti collection in Dubai — acrylic/polycarbonate “synthetic crystal” that’s kinder to pool decks, rooftops and yachts — paired with melamine that keeps family brunches relaxed and photo-ready. We’re bringing Italian design to Dubai, built for how the city actually hosts.
Why synthetic crystal belongs in Dubai
Sun, heat and movement make fragile glass unforgiving. Synthetic crystal keeps the radiance — facets, clarity, gloss — while dramatically reducing breakage and reset stress between courses. For balcony dinners, pool parties and weekend yacht days, it’s the easiest aesthetic upgrade that still respects zero-glass zones.
Melamine that still looks luxe
Pair your drinkware with melamine plates and platters: satin-smooth finishes that style beautifully in photos, stack neatly in smaller kitchens, and shrug off outdoor service. Blend clear pieces for a classic look, or add colour for a Mediterranean note.
Editor’s picks in situ
Set your table with a faceted icon like the Sister Rosetta synthetic-crystal pitcher for lemonades and spritz; keep the vibe relaxed poolside with the rounded, convivial Pallina pitcher for poolside; and elevate the bar cart at dusk with the architectural lines of the Imperial statement pitcher.
Style notes for villa, pool and yacht
-
Villa brunch (balcony or garden). Keep the palette sun-washed — linen, sage, pale blues — then let a coloured synthetic-crystal piece be the focal point.
-
Poolside hours. Clear or smoke tones read refined in harsh light; position pitchers within easy reach to minimise guest traffic across wet areas.
-
Yacht service. Limit to two tones for cohesion as light shifts at sunset; pre-chill pitchers and stage backups in a shaded bin.
Care & handling (quick wins)
-
Acrylic/polycarbonate drinkware: hand-wash with mild soap; avoid abrasive pads and very hot cycles; dry with a soft cloth to reduce spotting.
-
Melamine dinnerware: avoid microwave/oven; stack with felt or cloth between hero pieces you photograph often.
-
Storage: dedicate a labelled shelf/bin for outdoor sets so they return to the same place after events.

FAQ
Is synthetic crystal suitable for pool and rooftop areas?
Yes — its shatter-resistant nature makes it a smart choice where zero-glass policies apply, while keeping the look of crystal.
Will it look “plastic” in photos?
No — the cut and clarity are designed to catch light like crystal. Towel-dry before shooting to avoid water spots.
How does melamine fit a luxury table?
Finish matters. Satin or matte melamine provides a clean canvas for food styling and travels well between kitchen, terrace and yacht.
Can I mix clear and coloured pieces?
Absolutely. Use clear for timelessness; introduce one accent colour to echo flowers, pool tiles or napkins for a pulled-together set.
Is local stock available in the UAE?
Yes — this launch curates a Dubai-ready selection with local availability for faster hosting plans.
