It was a day of elegance and heritage as London-based Ilonggo antique collector Ian Paranpan unveiled his exquisite Royalty Porcelain Collection at Robinsons Place Jaro.
The grand affair began with a ceremonial ribbon-cutting led by esteemed Philippine Exemplary Influential Men awardee Dr. Rollin Tabuena, successful entrepreneur Felamie Aguillon, and the distinguished collector himself, Ian Paranpan.
Dr. Tabuena was later joined by his equally accomplished wife, Dr. Ma. Daisy Tabuena, adding further prestige to the occasion.
The event attracted Iloilo’s crème de la crème, who gathered not only to admire the porcelain masterpieces but to be seen among society’s finest.
Guests were warmly welcomed by Robinsons Jaro’s gracious general manager, Stella Mae Salcedo-Hembra.
A European-themed morning tea set the tone for the affair, as guests delighted in the artistry of Ian’s curated collection.
“These porcelain pieces, which I acquired through European auctions, were crafted by master artisans using only the finest materials to ensure exceptional quality,” Ian shared passionately.
Congratulations to our darling Ian for an unforgettable display of refined taste and cultural sophistication!
