EXPECT A MIRACLE with CRYSTAL GARDEN! The UK’s Giftware Association has just unveiled the list of winners of its prestigious annual Gift of the Year Awards revealing that Essania Ltd has been ‘Highly Commended’ in the 2009 competition. The company’s ‘Crystal Garden’ has been Highly Commended in the Gifts ‘Under £10 category’. Gift of the Year Awards are only given to the latest most original and innovatively designed products that can be given as gifts. However, entrants also have to demonstrate that the product is commercially viable. Carol Abbott, MD at Essania Ltd believes that it is the innovative design & quirky appeal of ‘Crystal Garden’ which has ensured its place on the list of the nation’s most exciting gifts for 2009: “Crystal Garden is fun and absolutely amazing to watch and is already proving popular with consumers. The Gift of the Year Awards is an excellent indicator of what’s going to be hot this Christmas and therefore, we are absolutely delighted to be Highly Commended. Essania is in the middle of an amazing year. We have the ‘A team’ for staff and the half yearly results are incredible, particularly in this lean time.’ According to Isabel Martinson, chief executive of The Giftware Association, judging the winners and highly commended products in each category was extremely difficult: “Now in their 30th year, the 2009 Awards have again attracted an enormous number of entries. We were inundated with new, exciting products all bidding to capture the judges’ attention and be crowned as this year’s must-have Christmas gift! Congratulations to Essania Ltd on this fantastic achievement.” - ends - If you would like photography or further media information, Gillian Bruce-Knight on 01202 855090 or |
