Description: Please Note: If you are interested in collecting Harmony Kingdom, Adam Binder Editions or Fragile World pieces, please select me as one of your favorite sellers on eBay, or contact me about a piece you are looking for, and I will be happy to list it, if I have it. I have a large selection of pieces in my eBay store, but due to the expense of listing them all at one time, I will be listing only a few auctions each week. I will try and list a variety of pieces each week and hopefully you will find items of interest to you. This Harmony Kingdom box figurine named "Trout # 001" was carved by Peter Calvesbert in 2007 and later named "Over the Rainbow" when production began. It was hand painted/finished by local craftsmen in the Cotswold area of England.This auction is for a rare prototype of the piece. After Peter carves a new piece, he makes a prototype, before it is released for production. When Harmony Ball was handling the US distribution, he sent the piece to the US for approval. This auction is for one of those rare prototypes.Prototypes did not come in a Harmony Kingdom labeled boxes, since those were added, once the production line started.Harmony Kingdom description of production piece:"For Peter’s 46th birthday he was given the gift of fly-fishing lessons at a recently opened trout lake, and was immediately hooked (sorry about that). He’s not sure if it is the fishing or the hours of solitude that he prefers, but happily it’s the inspiration for this rainbow trout model. The owners of Broad Oak Trout Lakes are Chris Lee and Charlotte Morgan, and their initials can be found near the base. Types of trout are inscribed on the lid and interior – Brook, Golden, Tiger, Rainbow, Apache and Brown. The oak leaf and acorn represent the names of the two lakes - Oak Lake and Acorn Lake. These lakes are a haven for wildlife, and even a very rare Squacco heron from Africa has recently been sighted. Numerous dragonflies can be found there and three are carved on this box figurine. Peter’s initials can be found above a small fish hiding in the reeds. The initials PTN stand for pheasant tail nymph, the name of a popular artificial fly pattern. Open the lid to see an example of a PTN." Free Ground Advantage insured shipping in the US. The piece is in new condition and signed by Peter. Thanks for looking!
