BILSTON & BATTERSEA ENAMELS, a name that resonates with craftsmanship and elegance.

 

Copper Enamels (Bilston) Ltd., founded in 1968 by the Marshall family, inherited the ancient knowledge of enamelling on copper.  In 1970, this legacy transformed into Bilston & Battersea Enamels, an innovative collaboration between a London-based antiques dealer and the revival of an English craft. The dealer designed boxes inspired by Georgian-era creations, rekindling the art in its original home.

 

The name Bilston & Battersea became synonymous with prestigious, luxurious enamel items cherished worldwide.  These enamels, once crafted under the name Halcyon Days Enamels, continue to captivate collectors and enthusiasts alike. Their beauty, like hidden treasures, awaits discovery.
