SILVESTRI GIFTWARE LIST

Dean Griff also did pieces designed for Silvestri called Giftware, or Griffware. There may be discrepancies on some of the names since there are no names on the majority of these pieces, even in the photos.

Verification

The name of the item is sometimes questionable because the pieces did not come with a name attached to them. If you have any further information, let me know. The item numbers, on the other hand, appear on the ornament tag.

PEPPERMINT KITCHEN / PEPPERMINT BEARS

Peppermint Kitchen was a line of peppermint pieces made by Silvestri. In this giftware line was a series of bears that collectors have referred to as "The Peppermint Bears" that Dean Griff designed. The catalog has several pages of peppermint pieces, under the title Peppermint Kitchen, and mixed in with those pieces are candy canes, pixies, etc., along with the bears.

They were never sold under Silvestri; during the bankruptcy, they were taken away by Fitz and Floyd and apparently given to Fitz and Floyd reps to put out. All the ones you'll find are samples. They have recently appeared on retailer shelves in unknown quantities with the familiar red Silvestri tag.

The catalog has a total of 15 pieces (source: 1997 Silvestri Catalog). Many are mislabeled in the catalog, so the names here are taken from the tags.

SNOW MAKERS

Some are hard to tell if it's an ornament of figurine. These are our best guesses. Those with an asterisk (*) are one where it's uncertain whether the piece is an ornament or figurine.

Note: 66213 Cardinal Icicle Ornament is NOT Dean's piece. The info came from a rep, Cathy Hauk said, but I asked Dean at a signing. He said the piece is definitely not his.
