1/1 edition R.R.P £425 – $799
This year marks the 102nd anniversary of the Anzac’s landing on Gallipoli shores to fight the Turkish in the First World War. Every year on the 25th of April, Australians and New Zealanders celebrate Anzac Day and gather to remember and honour the fallen and pay their respects. Visiting Gallipoli on Anzac Day is very much a one of kind experience as you get to attend the dawn service, memorial sites and experience the stunning atmosphere that takes you back in time to an era that has shaped Australia’s and New
Zealand’s history.
The 25th April was the day when the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps landed on the Gallipoli Peninsula in 1915
In 1916, the 25th April was officially named Anzac Day
There is no town called “Gallipoli” however, it is the name of the area. Visitors to Gallipoli usually stay at nearby towns
The site where the Anzac’s landed at Gallipoli was renamed Anzac Cove
The Anzac’s were all volunteers
The first dawn service for Anzac Day was in 1923
One of the main causes for the failure at Gallipoli was because the boats that took the soldiers landed at the incorrect area. Instead landing at a beach, they we met with sharp cliffs and continuous bombardments of gunning and shelling from the Turkish soldiers
Anzac Day was not a public holiday in New Zealand until 1921
The Gallipoli Peninsula is close to the ancient city of Troy.
More than 11,000 Anzac’s died at Gallipoli and a further 23,500 were wounded
The original Anzac biscuit was known as an Anzac wafer and was part of the rations given to the Anzac soldiers during World War I
The men who served on the Gallipoli Peninsula created a legend, adding the word ‘Anzac’ to the Aussie and Kiwi vocabulary and producing the idea of the Anzac spirit
The most significant time to remember the Anzac’s is at dawn as this is when the original Gallipoli landing happened
The last surviving Anzac was Alec Campbell who died on May 16, 2002
The poppy is worn on Anzac Day as a reminder of the soldiers lost in battle

Easter Egg
This year’s Easter Egg is delicately painted with Tulips with a striking black background by Elizabeth Todd. The tiny egg shape has always been used for this collection, which launched in 2007 with a beautiful crocus design by Fiona Bakewell. The shape has been the perfect canvas for our skilled artists to paint their unique designs showing flowers in natural settings creating a delightful miniature bouquet that not only never fades but is an Easter Egg that won’t affect your waistline! Only the very best artists are able to paint on a curved surface as the proportions of the design have to be maintained as the scene moves around the shape. And, like all Elliot Hall Enamels, the Eggs are completely freehand painted – meaning no prints or guidelines are ever used.

Elizabeth uses the tiniest of her brushes and the most miniscule of delicate strokes to complete each painting and she signs each one. In addition, the eggs unscrew providing the perfect place to store a tiny memento!

2018 Annual Valentine’s box – BARN OWLS

Carrying on the theme from 2017 this year’s annual Valentine’s Box is the 2nd box to feature birds, Barn Owls, appearing on this enchanting enamel. As adults, Barn Owls are solitary animals until they pair with a mate. They mate for life and become very emotionally attached to their partner. Barn Owls can often be seen cuddling with their partner and babies in their nest.

Sandra has pictured the Barn Owls so they enhance the contours of the Heart Shaped Valentine’s Box – both inside and out – and her delicate brushstrokes captures the amazing detail these animals have in their plumage. The box is the eight in the Annual Valentine’s Day series

The Barn Owl is considered to be one of the most widely distributed birds in the world. A species of Barn Owl can be found on every continent, with the exception of Antarctica. Barn Owls are not territorial or aggressive to other Barn Owls. A pair of owls will nest as close as 1/2 a mile from another nesting pair.
