Secrets
& Variations:
A turkey peers out from amid the goodies spilling from
a cornucopia, or horn of plenty. Squashed among the
pumpkins you’ll find Peter Calvesbert’s
signature mouse. “Pete” is carved on the
underside of the back of the cornucopia. “Nelly”
on the underside of a loaf of bread is a possible name
for his second child. The shell comes from the artist’s
son, Sam, who spent his first seaside holiday at Tenby
Beach in Wales. There are 2700 pieces worldwide with
the standard coloring and 360 pieces
worldwide with vivid coloring. The
standard US interior shows a cooked turkey
on a table. A special variation for the US shows a mouse
on the platter (495 pieces). A special variation
in the UK shows a fly on the plate (45 pieces).
There is also a unique jeweled version,
of which only one was made.
