Inspired by different souvenirs they collected from their travels, British art duo Joseph Lattimer and Caitlin Derer decided to create a collection of art toys inspired by famous characters from their city of London.

Lattimer and Derer, who run a creative studio, Fancy Lamp, initially launched a successful crowdfunding campaign through Kickstarter that saw them create the basic set of five toys. The lineup included playwriter William Shakespeare, Queen Elizabeth II, the famous fictional detective Sherlock Holmes, Tower of London guards known as Beefeater, and King Henry VIII.

The duo later expanded the collection with several other characters, including Queen Elizabeth I and King’s Guard. 

According to Lattimer and Derer, their main goal is to offer London visitors a reminder of this magnificent city that they can proudly display at their homes. They also hope to expand the series, now named Collectable Cities, to other cities around the globe as well while making more additions to the London collection.

“The ultimate goal is to offer a wide selection of characters to represent a wonderfully diverse London and beyond,” Lattimer and Derer share.

London is one of the most magical cities in the world, and if you don’t want to take our word for it—just head to Ticija Hax’s Instagram page. This travel and fashion blogger is using her platform to encourage people from all around the world to embark on a fairy tale adventure in the city she’s proud to call home.

London is one of those cities that’s on pretty much everyone’s bucket list, and Hax is a firm believer one could explore it forever and still find something new to discover. Her travel guides go beyond Big Ben and Tower Bridge, and they’ll introduce you to some hidden gems only a local could tell you about.

Hax took it upon herself to be that local, and her love for London shines through in every post she shares with over 100,000 Instagram followers. She’s constantly frolicking through her hometown in some of the most stunning dresses you’ll ever see, making it seem even more magical.

Hax is no stranger to traveling to other places, and we’ve seen her jet off everywhere from Paris to Venice, but London will always hold a special place in her heart. No matter where she goes, her most memorable moments always happen here because London has something amazing to offer to each and every person, during each and every season.
