ThisHarmony Kingdom box figurinenamed "Nest Egg" was carved by Peter Calvesbert in 2009. It was hand painted/finished bylocal craftsmen in the Cotswoldarea of England.
This sale 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 sale is for one of those rare hard body prototypes.
Prototypes did not come in a Harmony Kingdom labeled boxes, since those were added, once the production line started.
Harmony Kingdom description:
"This hard body prototype figurine portrays sea turtles at their most vulnerable – as they hatch and make a mad dash to the sea. The seven species are inscribed throughout: Green, Hawksbill, Leatherback, Loggerhead, Flatback, Kemp’s Ridley and Olive Ridley. Interestingly, the sex of the turtle depends on the temperature of the eggs. At 28°C they become males and at 32°C they are females. Anywhere in between is a tossup."
