Peter was recently invited to his children’s school to
talk about and demonstrate his work. His son Sam calmed his
nerves by telling him that the last dad who visited was
sweating so much that he had to keep mopping his face with
a handkerchief. Thankfully Peter’s visit went well!
The children most enjoyed playing with “Perfect 10”,
the 2005 Royal Watch Redemption Piece with ten creatures that
circle the perimeter, allowing for 100 different combinations.
That was where the idea for another combination box came from.
While “Sweet Sixteen” isn’t as large as its predecessor and
has four instead of ten animals, it can still
produce 64 different animal combinations from
the elephant, turtle, snake and kangaroo.
Have fun!
Open the lid to find a simple inscription in commemoration of
the Calvesbert family’s wonderful old Border Collie, Murphy,
whom they lost on the 3rd of February (3.2.10).
2.25" wide, 2.25" long and 3" tall.
As with any hand-tinted product,
