"Halcyon Days was established in 1950 as an emporium of antique gifts in Mayfair, London. Although the art of enameling on copper had flourished throughout the second half of the 18th century, it had almost completely ceased by the 1830s, and by 1950 the process was solely reserved for utility items such as saucepans.

Halcyon Days set about reviving this artisan craft and, by 1970, had opened its own production facility.  While our products are sold all around the world, they continue to be crafted by hand in our two workshops in the West Midlands, the beating heart of the British pottery and enameling industries."
