This gift set includes collectable Titanic and Spitfire items, along with your choice of handmade Hampshire chocolate treats. A fantastic pressie for anyone interested in the Titanic or WWII, and a great souvenir of Southampton.

More than a century after sailing from Southampton Dock on 10 April 1912, the
Titanic still captures the imagination like no other ship. The Spitfire fighter jet, an icon of WWII, was built in Southampton. These local legends inspire the most popular of our high-quality hand-made gifts, all crafted in the UK using sustainable materials and methods.

• What’s the Spitfire’s Southampton connection? Southampton is the birthplace of the Spitfire aircraft, designed by RJ Mitchell and first flown in 1936. Only 12 were ordered but more than 22,500 were built.
• How did the Spitfire get its name? RJ. Mitchell, designer of the famous Spitfire fighter aircraft, wanted to call it the Shrew or Scarab. Instead it was named after Mitchell’s boss’s daughter, whose fiery character earned her the nickname ‘Spitfire’.
• What did Henry V get up to in Southampton? The Grace Dieu, Henry V’s flagship, was built using New Forest timber at a specially-erected dock near Town Quay. Launched in 1418 to fight the Genoese and French, she only sailed once, thanks to a crew mutiny. In fact, she only made it to the Isle of Wight!
