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 figurine named "Turn the Tide" was carved by Peter Calvesbert in 2009. It was hand painted/finished by local craftsmen in the Cotswold area of England.
Harmony Kingdom description:
"Everyone loves dolphins! Is it their intelligence, their playful squeaks, or maybe that big toothy smile? Beloved universally, it’s hard to imagine that a fresh water dolphin is now believed extinct. In 1950, it was estimated there were 6000 Baiji dolphins in the river Yangtze. None have been seen since 2007. It seems that the Baiji has paid the price for China’s industrial success. The lid on Peter’s fixed edition box figurine bears the names of the largest (Orca) and smallest (Maui) of the dolphin family. The Latin name for the Bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncates) is also inscribed. Peter’s signature mouse is swimming frantically, in an attempt to stay ahead of the dolphins and not inside them, like the fish found within “Turn the Tide."
