Border Fine Arts, the UK’s premier manufacturer of
hand-painted resin figurines, is very proud to announce the launch of the first
two figurines in their new A Moment in
Time collection.
Sculpted by Peter Mook under the direction of Border Fine
Arts’ design director, Ray Ayres, the figurines are made entirely by hand in
the Border Fine Arts studios in Langholm. Both figurines are to be produced in
worldwide numbered editions of 250. After casting and assembling by hand, each will
be painted by hand, meaning no two will be identical, and, as befits such
prestigious studies, every piece will be presented with an individually
numbered limited edition certificate of authenticity.
The new figurines portray favourite ‘moments in time’
from two of Walt Disney’s most successful films — Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Pinocchio. The Snow White
and the Seven Dwarfs figurine [pictured] is inspired by the iconic moment
in the film when Snow White wakes up to find the dwarfs looking at her in awe
from the bottom of her bed. Every intricate detail of the scene is included in
the model from interpreting the grain of the wood to the adorable expressions
of the dwarfs. Meanwhile the memorable ‘moment in time’ when Pinocchio first
comes to life is the inspirational scene for the Geppetto & Pinocchio figurine.
With such a pedigree the figurines are destined to become
the ultimate ‘must have’ for serious Disney collectors.
