The
Charming Tails range of figurines was created by artist Dean Griff.
Dean Griff's artwork and designs of woodland animals (especially mice)
are sculpted into extremely cute figurines. The Charming Tails come as
single figurines, hanging ornaments, waterglobes and more. Their popularity
is growing and early pieces are already fetching higher prices on the
secondary market. Dean Griff is pictured right at a signing event.
They were renamed Charming
Tails the following year and the production moved to Silvestri's parent
company at the time, Fitz and Floyd. A number of collections have been
produced including the Squashville Village, a range of lighted houses
where the characters of Charming Tails reside.
