This is a difficult to find collection consisting of the 1984 original buildings of the Dickens Village. Based on the writings of Charles Dickens, this charming village and characters were created.
All are beautifully crafted in porcelain and painted in delicate colors. Also included with the original village is a lovely stone bridge, the "Dickens Village" town sign, and 20 villagers, including nine carolers, the town crier, Scrooge, and the chimney sweep. The butcher shows off poultry, while young Tom rides on his father's shoulders. It is all very charming.
All pieces were discontinued long ago. The previously white cords with a light bulb have been spray painted mauve, and have a colored bulb instead of clear. It is with a heavy heart that I must part with this village. Smithy 6 3/4" 3 7/8" 4 3/4. Butcher 6" 5 1/4" 3 3/4. Crowntree Inn 7" 5" 4 1/4.6.5" 4.5" 4 3/4. Green Grocer 5 3/4" 5 3/4" 4 1/2.
