“Bone Head” is Harmony Kingdom’s first dinosaur themed box figurine.
Our favorite master carver says
he wishes he roamed the earth during the age of the dinosaurs but that
would make him at least 65 million
years old and probably a bit shaky on his feet. Peter’s triceratops
is bemused by a meteorite landing at his feet.
Was this the meteorite that caused dinosaurs’ extinction? The triceratops
has trodden on a sign that reads
“Hell Creek”, a rock formation in North Dakota that is rich in dinosaur
discoveries. The hidden mouse has
also turned up, just checking that his stand-in, the snake, is doing
its job properly. Peter began carving
“Bone Head” on his birthday, which is inscribed on the beast’s belly.
A month later, he added the finishing
touches while his son Sam was celebrating his fifth birthday, commemorated
on the box’s lid. Peter imagines
that the reason there are no photographs of dinosaurs is because they
ate all the photographers,
so his triceratops’ interior is full of cameras.
