Easter Egg
This year’s Easter Egg is delicately painted with Easter lilies 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!

Named after the German physician Friedrich Heinrich Theodor Freese, freesia – with their bell-shaped blooms and sweet, citrus scent – are among the most popular fragrant flowers. And, while in most cases the white variation of a flower is the most fragrant, in the case of freesia, the pink and red varieties are actually more highly scented. With their wiry stems and delicate blooms, it’s not surprising that one of the most popular freesia varieties is named Ballerina.

The 7th wedding anniversary flower, in the language of flowers, freesia are said to symbolize innocence and friendship.

NEW Nursery Rhyme Vase
Nursery rhyme, verse customarily told or sung to small children. The oral tradition of nursery rhymes is ancient, but new verses have steadily entered the stream. A French poem numbering the days of the month, similar to “Thirty days hath September,” was recorded in the 13th century; but such latecomers as “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” (by Ann and Jane Taylor; pub. 1806) and “Mary Had a Little Lamb” (by Sarah Josepha Hale; pub. 1830) seem to be just as firmly established in the repertoire.
Some of the oldest rhymes are probably those accompanying babies’ games, such as “Handy, dandy, prickly, pandy, which hand will you have? and for the riddle-rhyme “Humpty-Dumpty” suggests the possibility that these rhymes come down from very ancient sources, since direct translation is unlikely.
Elizabeth Todd translation of these nursery rhymes from paper to paintbrush on the holt vase shape is testament to her incredible skill as she seamlessly intertwines each different rhyme around this one off vase measuring 90mm High. This is destined to be launched in our next 1/1 brochure but I couldn’t wait to show you this whimsical piece of art. R.R.P £545 Featuring Humpty Dumpty, the Owl and the Pussy Cat, Little Miss Muffet and Hey Diddle Diddle the cat & the Fiddle
