Nelson figurine added to collection

Probably the finest and certainly the most historically accurate figurine of Nelson ever commissioned will be available from Remember Nelson shortly. Sculpted by Bob Russell in his Hampshire studios, 'Nelson' is more than 15 inches tall and is modelled on the famous Abbott painting - although it corrects a number of inaccuracies in the painting.

'Nelson' will be issued in a strictly limited edition of 200 worldwide and will be followed by a companion piece, 'Emma'. For more information about these figurines or to make a no-obligation reservation, please email nelson@remembernelson.com

First Nelson Fabric since 1806

Remember Nelson is proud to announce that we have commissioned what is probably the first Nelson fabric to have been produced since 1806. Manufactured in Belgium from original designs by David Williams, the fabric will be used to upholster a range of furniture, including cushions - and possibly headscarves, ties etc.

Nelson's debt repaid after 200 years

When Nelson visited Chamberlain's porcelain factory in Worcester in 1802, accompanied by Emma, Lady Hamilton, they ordered a number of dinner services. Sadly, Nelson was killed at Trafalgar before the bill for one of the services was paid and the debt has been outstanding ever since.

Chamberlain's ultimately became part of Royal Worcester and at the official launch of Remember Nelson at St Paul's Cathedral this evening, James Boddy the founder and Chairman of Remember Nelson Limited handed over a cheque to Royal Worcester to clear the long-outstanding debt - with 200 years' interest added!
