Master Carver Peter Calvesbert is a light sleeper, so he often hears the dawn chorus. Beautiful though it is, singing is the last thing he would feel like doing at 4:30 a.m. He imagines that some birds must be thinking, \"Do I have to sing today?\" His box figurine portrays five early risers, fulfilling their duties but wishing they were back in bed. While carving the final inscriptions on this model, Peter heard that Michael Woodrum had sadly succumbed to his illness. Anfe and Michael have been part of the Harmony Kingdom family from the start and are well known in the HK community. Peter\'s final visit with Michael was at the June 2011 HOP Convention in Chicago. Peter says, \"This was the last time I saw Michael; and although not well, he was still the true gentleman we all knew. He is remembered on this model - the very least I could do.\"

Although Harmony Kingdom is still manufactured at Wimberley Mills near Stroud in Gloucestershire, since Martin Perry, the founder retired in August 2005, marketing and shipping of the pieces is done from the USA office at Harmony Ball Company in Ohio. This means that we have to consolidate our orders before having them shipped to us. We are currently taking deliveries about every 6 weeks and so there may be a delay with your order if the piece is not already in stock. We will advise by email. Hope this doesn't cause a problem.
