Halcyon Days Bilston & Battersea Enamel Box Rosy Starling Birds perched on rose hips.
A fabulous vintage Halcyon Days enameled pillbox made in England. This enamelled box features two great birds in a middle of a beautiful red rosehip, green leaf landscape. This beautiful tall enamel box was made in the 1970s by the English company called Halcyon Days. The Bilston & Battersea mark was the first mark used by the company and dates the piece between 1970-1979. Halcyon Days set out to replicate the eighteenth-century English craft of enamelling over copper to produce lovely little boxes which were originally used for beauty patches, snuff, or candies.
Would make a fabulous gift!
