The Wonderland Book – Collector’s Edition Box Set with Bronze Sculpture

$ 11,000.00

This exclusive box set is limited to only 25 copies, presented in a beautiful hand-crafted fabric-covered clamshell box with matching portfolio slip case inside. The three Limited Edition prints consist of The White Queen Trilogy (‘The Queen’s Armada’, ‘The White Queen’, ‘The Faraway Tree’).

The highlight of this set is the exquisite solid bronze sculpture of The White Queen’s key, seated in its own presentation tray, sunk into a deep surround with an original 1st Edition Wonderland book. Each key takes 8 weeks to create, going through many hand finishing processes. It is forged by London Bronze Casting and is specially patinated by the bronze artist Derek Bayley. The key’s edition numbers are individually marked on the bottom edge and the mould will be destroyed forever once the final one has been sold.
