Item History & Price
Pre-owned and in excellent condition. This is a rare enamel which forms part of the exclusive collection of Lawn Society boxes commissioned by the University of Virginia. These enamels were presented to donors in recognition of their generosity to the Alumni Society and as such, rarely make it to the open market.
This box features The Rotunda, originally the University's library. There is a full description on the inside lid, University seal on the inside base, Halcyon D...ays and Lawn Society base stamp, and Halcyon Days storage box.
THE CRAFT OF ENAMELLING - HALCYON DAYSOur enamels demonstrate the very best of British craftsmanship and our craftsmen take great pride in delivering luxury products of the highest standard. Each of our beautiful handcrafted enamel boxes is a work of art in its own right. The production of enamels requires meticulous craftsmanship, using a process that has been handed down for generations. The art of enamelling on copper first started in England in the 1740s and was in danger of dying out completely before Halcyon Days revived this master art in 1950.
