Gorilla Family, Panda & Fennec Fox became the ' Fleur-de-lis Collection'. All models were made with the new 'Stonite' which was a blend of PVC plastic and stone material to reinforce and stabilise.

This piece was inspired by a mother gorilla (Baby Doll), cradling her week-old offspring "Kabu", born at Howlett's Zoo in Kent, England.  Also included is her number two son, Kibobo.

Part of the proceeds of the sales were donated to the World Wildlife Fund.
