Limited Edition of 1,501!For the 2005 event, we have selected the Mexican holiday "Day of the Dead" as the theme. Day of the Dead, or Dia de los Muertos, is a holiday very dear to Noel Wiggins and Lisa Yashon, co-founders of Harmony Ball Company. It was what brought them to Mexico in October and November of 1988, when they were still young and carefree. They had been collecting "Day of the Dead" figurines in the U.S. and wanted to find the source of their treasures and to experience the holiday first hand. Traveling in an old and battered camper throughout the incredible country of Mexico, little did they know that their adventure would be the start of Harmony Ball Company and Harmony Kingdom. To commemorate the ten year anniversary of The Royal Watch Collector's Club, we thought now was the perfect time to pay tribute to the holiday that started it all.
For those of you that aren't familiar with this Mexican holiday, the Day of the Dead is a colorful, festive, family celebration where people pay tribute to their deceased loved ones. Flowers, incense, candles, statuary and photographs adorn grave yards and home displays called "ofrendas". There is always a lot of food and music; a solemn occasion this is not! Many Harmony Kingdom retailers will re-create a Dia de los Muertos party for you to experience.
Peter Calvesbert has carved a delightful box figurine specifically for the occasion. Like previous autumn events, each piece will be shrink-wrapped so the joy of discovery will be all yours. The worldwide edition for "Day of the Deadfest" is 1501, with 125 vividly painted versions, 275 mold variations, and a one-of-a-kind jeweled piece!
