On the 1st June 2006, The Elms Manor House, Abberley, Worcestershire witnessed the dawning of a new age in collecting; the launch of a new company and the unveiling of its first portfolio of exquisitely hand painted miniature enamels.

Since that auspicious day, Elliot Hall Enamels has not wavered in its commitment to create the world's finest hand painted enamels. Each unique miniature is produced in England to exacting standards of perfection using time-honoured techniques and painstakingly decorated by the most talented artists.

The inspired launch collection was an immediate sell-out, gaining instant attention from retailers and subsequently keen collectors across the globe, all recognising the unique quality and exceptional investment potential of each stunning piece.

Elliot Hall's second collection for 2008 pushes the bounds of enamel painting to exquisite new heights of artistry and perfection, embodying in infinite detail the company's overwhelming commitment to provide the world's finest, most exclusive and most collectable limited edition freehand painted miniature enamels.

With an emphasis on freehand painting only - without the reliance on transfers used by other companies - Elliot Hall's enamels surpass all expectation, embracing in their breadth and diversity a freedom of artistic expression that fires the senses and brings exciting new life to an ancient art form, using and enhancing time-honoured skills to create truly memorable miniature works of art for the 21st century.

With a family history in copper-working and enamels stretching back to 1904, Elliot Hall's fine art pedigree and knowledge of the collectables market is evident throughout the collection, with its focus on exquisite limited editions only, sumptuous presentation and the most prestigious branding.

'A New Beginning - In My Life'
2006 and 2007 Collections

From the enamels initial design to their final presentation in silk-lined boxes, Elliot Hall's commitment to quality and perfection is total; there is no compromise, no acceptance of the sub-standard. Buy an Elliot Hall enamel and you can rest assured that it is a truly unique, artist-signed limited edition, freehand-painted and perfect in every detail.

Elliot Hall's association with finely crafted giftware and enamels stretches back over a century to 1902, when the Hall family started a small business in the Worcestershire area.

Since then the finely honed traditional skills on which the company's longstanding success is based and its overriding commitment to perfection have been handed down from generation to generation.

Joining the family company at the age of 16, Elliot's rigorous commercial and practical training was overseen by his father, John, who like his father before him, passed on the essential craftsmanship skills, whilst his mother, Barbara, trained Elliot's eye for detail.

From past to present, Elliot is now assisted in the running of Elliot Hall Enamels by fiancée, Tiffany, who shares his strength, drive and overwhelming determination to succeed.

Underpinning the company's enduring success is a total commitment to the essential virtues of quality and beauty. With no regard to time, each exquisitely detailed enamel is wholly freehand painted without the use of outlines or transfers, whilst a dedication to the most traditional production techniques and use of only the finest materials, gives them a truly unique vibrancy and character that no other modern enamels can match.

Inherently proud of the Worcestershire area where the company is based, all of Elliot Hall's shapes are named after local villages, including its home village of Ockeridge, and new shapes for 2007, Stanford, Ombersley & Shelsley.

"Creating enamels of such quality and beauty is a truly group effort, demanding outstanding dedication from our 12-strong team of artists and crafts people. We are sure that you, like us, salute their artistry and commitment."
