cornucopias
Overflowing harvest containers
Cornucopias is the plural of cornucopia, a horn-shaped container overflowing with fruits, vegetables, and flowers—a symbol of abundance and plenty.
The image comes from classical mythology and appears frequently in harvest imagery and Thanksgiving decorations: Paper cornucopias spilled across the table.
Figuratively, any generous supply: a cornucopia of delights.
