THE COTSWOLDS
Harmony Kingdom's U. K. headquarters, Wimberley Mills, is privileged to be located in one of the most beautifull rural areas in England, the South Cotswolds. Designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Cotswold is famous for its honey-coloured stone cottages, grand manor houses and impressive churches.
The name Cotswolds refers to rolling hills and broad river valleys. These wooded hills and valleys are especially suitable for grazing, particularly for the native Cotswold sheep, which in medieval times were responsible for the growth of the wool trade. For centuries Cotswold wool was used in more than half of England's cloth and was exported to the continent, bringing great wealth to the wool merchants who donated large sums to the local churches and built themselves magnificent houses.
This setting has had great influence on the creators of Harmony Kingdom. The box figurines share the same reverence towards nature, feeling of antiquity and subtle colouration as the place in which they are created.
