ITEM 4.  CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

Effective June 4, 2002, the Board of Directors of Enesco Group, Inc. ("the
Company"), upon the recommendation of its Audit Committee, decided to engage
KPMG LLP ("KPMG") as the Company's independent public accountants for the fiscal
year 2002. As previously disclosed in the Company's proxy statement, the Board
decided to obtain competitive proposals for the Company's annual audit.

Arthur Andersen LLP's ("Arthur Andersen") reports on the consolidated financial
statements of the Company for each of the years ended December 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion,
nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles. During each of the years ended December 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000 and through the date hereof, there have been no disagreements
with Arthur Andersen on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Arthur Andersen, would
have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in
connection with its reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements
for such periods, nor have there been any reportable events as listed in Item
304 (a) (1) (v) of Regulation S-K.

Arthur Andersen was provided with a copy of the statements made in the foregoing
paragraph and has furnished a letter addressed to the Commission stating that it
agrees with such statements. A copy of Arthur Andersen's letter is attached
hereto as Exhibit 16.1.




During the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 and through the date hereof,
the Registrant did not consult with KPMG regarding any of the matters or events
set forth in Item 304 (a) (2) (i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
