The
loss of RMS TITANIC is the most famous disaster
in history and continues to captivate the
imagination. Many have asked the question “why?”
and the answer is now much more easily
understood. Had it been a work of fiction, it
would hold all the ingredients for a truly
unbelievable story! The world’s largest moving
object, carrying the rich & famous, and the less
privileged, heading for a better life in the
“New World” and of course, the unparalleled
luxury of this perceived ‘unsinkable’ ship.
TITANIC housed the best of everything and her
owners, the White Star Line, spared no expense
in her construction and fixtures & fittings.
Suppliers and manufacturers provided their
premier products and were actively encouraged to
advertise their association with the new class
of luxurious ocean liners, RMS OLYMPIC &
TITANIC.
Royal Crown Derby were one such company and
provided a stunning range of china to be used in
the exclusive onboard ‘a la carte’ restaurant,
by the world’s most discerning diners.
White Star Memories, Europe’s leading Titanic
specialists are proud to present in association
with Royal Crown Derby, their world-class
exhibition for the first time in England.
Hundreds of incredible artefacts,
sympathetically displayed in settings such as
boarding scenes, a 1st class cabin and of
course, the ‘a la carte restaurant’ with
original china, silverware, crystal and even
furniture!
See the original costumes worn in James
Cameron’s blockbuster movie, “TITANIC” by Kate
Winslet, Leonardo DiCaprio & Billy Zane, as well
as genuine White Star Line uniforms and period
clothing.
View incredibly rare & unique documentation,
letters and postcards from TITANIC herself and
much, much more. This exhibition will captivate
the visitor and provide you with a truly
memorable trip back in time to an age long gone;
the “Golden Age” of travel in splendour and
opulence.
