18th Century Pink Battersea-Bilston Mourning Box, Ex-Collection of H.R.H. Princess Royal Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood (1897–1965)
An exquisite 18th-century pink Battersea-Bilston mourning box is a rare and pristine example of fine enamel craftsmanship. This oval-shaped box measures 2.5 inches wide, 1.5 inches deep, and 1 inch high. Its delicate design features an enameled center urn flanked by intricate flowers and vines, showcasing the elegance and attention to detail typical of Battersea-Bilston enamel work.
This remarkable piece comes from the distinguished collection of H.R.H. Princess Mary, Princess Royal, and Countess of Harewood (1897–1965), adding significant provenance and historical value. Bearing an auction label from Christie's dated 1957, it reads: "From the Collection of H.R.H. Princess Royal, Ex Christie's, 13–15 March 1957, #185/2."
Mourning boxes like this were used to hold small mementos or tokens of remembrance, making this piece not only a work of art but also a poignant relic of the past. The condition of this box is exceptional, with its vibrant pink enamel and intricate motifs remaining beautifully preserved over the centuries.
