The enamel box from Halcyon Days commemorates the bicentenary of Vice-Admiral Lord Nelson’s death in 1805. The portrait of Lord Nelson is inspired by a miniature in the National Maritime Museum Greenwich, while the base features paintings inspired by Nicholas Pocock’s An Action During the Napoleonic War 1803-1815, also in the NMMC’s collection. Inside the box, there’s Nelson’s coat of arms. The rectangular box is crafted in Bilston from enamel-coated copper. This traditional technique creates the perfect surface for paint, capturing the vibrant colours of the artwork. Limited Edition 300
