GARGOYLES Generated deep within the heart of our Earth is a mysterious power which is channeled through intricate vein systems which we now know as Ley Lines. Our wiser ancestors were aware of this awesome natural energy and treated it with the greatest respect. As man progressed, involving himself in more wordly affairs, he gradually lost the Earthly wisdom possessed by his ancestors, forsaking The Knowledge for more material matters. It was during this "progression" that the Gargoyles - outlandish creatures of implacable form - were invoked from their elemental plane of stone, to adopt the role of sentinels to preserve and protect the untapped energies. Here, the Gargoyles remain, formidable watchmen, safeguarding this immence force until Man's irresponsibility is no longer in evidence. For only then can the Gargoyles permit the use of the power as it was intended - for the benefit of our Mother Earth.

These are some of the only Gargoyle figures that I have ever really taken to, I think it's because they are so humourous and they still make me smile Their strange names are actually based on old Scottish words which describe each individual Gargoyle --------------- Click on any of the pictures to see more and larger pictures PHOTO NAME HEIGHT SCULPTOR PRICE (May 1991) DURK 11cm (4.25") Carol Lynn Penny £16.50 DROD 11cm (4.25") Carol Lynn Penny £16.50 SHIRPIT 11cm (4.25") Carol Lynn Penny £16.50 OOGLY 11.5cm (4.5") Carol Lynn Penny £16.50 SKRAN 11.5cm (4.5") Carol Lynn Penny £16.50 KIBBLE 11.5cm (4.5") Carol Lynn Penny £16.50 GROOZLE 20cm (7.75") Carol Lynn Penny £39.75 UNKIN (Early version) 11.5cm (4.5") Carol Lynn Penny £--.-- UNKIN 16cm (6.25") Carol Lynn Penny £39.75 SMAIK 16cm (6.25") Carol Lynn Penny £29.50 BOOLIE 20cm (7.75") Carol Lynn Penny £39.75 MIRKY 20.5cm (8") Carol Lynn Penny £39.75
