In the 19th century, parasols could serve as \u003cstrong\u003elove tokens and wedding gifts\u003c\/strong\u003e, and presenting one to a woman could signify a gentleman’s serious romantic intentions.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece takes its name from \u003cstrong\u003eBettina Rothschild\u003c\/strong\u003e, who received a particularly magnificent parasol from her fiancé. Made of silk and covered with gauze and lace, its tips were reportedly decorated with emeralds and other gems. Lawrence gives his rabbits their own ornate parasol, although their immediate concern is less romance than finding some relief from the effects of \u003cstrong\u003eglobal warming\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rabbits have enlisted several additional defenses against the heat, including \u003cstrong\u003eice cream and a cooler\u003c\/strong\u003e. A bottle of sunscreen marked \u003cstrong\u003e“Kyoto Tan”\u003c\/strong\u003e refers to the Kyoto Protocol, the international agreement intended to address climate change. Another inscription, \u003cstrong\u003e“Ward Hunt,”\u003c\/strong\u003e references the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf and its breakup, reinforcing the environmental theme woven throughout the carving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside the box, Lawrence changes the scenery with a plentiful collection of \u003cstrong\u003eleaves and nuts from a cob tree\u003c\/strong\u003e. Hidden among them is the artist’s familiar \u003cstrong\u003esignature acorn\u003c\/strong\u003e. The engraved number \u003cstrong\u003e“124”\u003c\/strong\u003e identifies \u003cem\u003eRothschild\u003c\/em\u003e as the \u003cstrong\u003e124th box figurine David Lawrence carved for Harmony Kingdom\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced as a \u003cstrong\u003eFixed Edition of 2,500\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cem\u003eRothschild\u003c\/em\u003e was made in England and measures approximately \u003cstrong\u003e3 inches high × 2.4 inches wide × 2.1 inches long\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom the Harmony Kingdom Archives\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis example comes directly from the former Harmony Kingdom Archives inventory dispersed at auction in August 2026 and was acquired by AtopTheTables from Archive Lot HK55.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is one of 3 examples of TJDLRA2 documented in the Archive inventory acquired by AtopTheTables.
