THE ODD COUPLE from Harmony Kingdom has arrived!

    Last May I posted information about the creation of the new Harmony Kingdom Collectors Club that includes the benefits of receiving updated news and special offers. Of course, as a Harmony Kingdom collector and retailer, I joined. In May, club members who asked to receive information on “Exclusive Harmony Kingdom Opportunities”, received an announcement for the first exclusive opportunity to purchase “The Odd Couple” box figurine, featuring an otter and turtle in sweet embrace. Within each piece, there is a special little marbledust fish trinket. Why is it there? Know one really knows, but it certainly adds to the oddity of the carving!

    This adorable box figurine, carved by Monique Baldwin, was produced in England’s Wimberley Mills with an edition of only 150. The two that I ordered arrived last Saturday and they are wonderful - the expression on the turtles face is priceless! I will be keeping one for my personal collection and I will offer the other for sale sometime in the future here on What's New at Dezign Zoo. Some of these pieces will undoubtably turn up on ebay (actually a couple already have) but if you would like to own one and aren't lucky enough to obtain one elsewhere, you might want to follow my blog for another chance.

ALL ABOUT HARMONY BALL POT BELLYS

The Harmony Ball Pot Belly collection is unique in the world of miniature figurines. These detailed characters are actually boxes with secret compartments for holding tiny treasures. The original models are carved at Martin Perry Studios in Gloucestershire, England then molded with a unique crushed marble resin developed by Martin Perry and then hand painted and tinted.

  The collection includes charming animals, people, and other characters such as snowmen, ghosts, and Christmas trees. Cookie jar box figurines that were a little bigger than the rest of the collection (to make room for the cookies), were also part of the collection for a limited time.

  Since their inception, many different timed collections have been created and retired. Collections have included: farmyard animals, zoological animals, baby animals, calendar cats, historical cats, historical people and others. Each unique character within the collections are typical of the originality of the Pot Belly line.

  In September of 2009 Harmony Ball added Key Chains to the Pot Belly family. Depicting an array of famous faces, each is beautifully crafted and hand-tinted and instead of having a secret compartment like the others, these figurines include a durable stainless steel key chain.Collectors can choose from Albert Einstein, Abraham Lincoln, Barack Obama, Edgar Allan Poe, Mahatma Gandhi and William Shakespeare.

  Dezign Zoo Animal Emporium carries a large selection of the Animal Pot Bellys while Dezign Zoo Collectibles and Gifts offers a selection of Historical People. Of course, for more information and to view all of the available Pot Belly box figurines, you can visit the Official Harmony Ball Website.

  NOTE: I order from the Harmony Ball Company on a regular basis so, if you are looking for any Pot Bellys that aren't available in either of my stores, let me know - I would be more than happy to special order them for you! I am easy to contact from either of my websites.
