Step into the refined world of Victorian gemology with "Too Pretty To Pellet," a captivating figurine from Department 56's Dickens Village collection.

Dressed in a sophisticated red coat and top hat, the gentleman holds a cane in one hand and the radiant ruby in the other. His careful inspection reflects the meticulous attention to quality and beauty that defined the era. While many rubies were used for their functional purpose in timekeeping, those with the deepest color and fewest impurities were reserved for creating stunning jewelry and exquisite ornamentation.

"Too Pretty To Pellet" embodies the spirit of craftsmanship and the appreciation of natural beauty that flourished in the Victorian period. This figurine adds a touch of elegance and historical richness to your Dickens Village display, celebrating the timeless allure of precious gems.

Add "Too Pretty To Pellet" to your collection and let it serve as a reminder of the extraordinary skill and artistry that goes into crafting the finest jewelry.

New Fall village

I’ve wanted to start a Fall village and this was the year these great pieces were released. But with the economy a little tight I hesitated. I wasn’t really sure by looking online. But finally I gave in and ordered this and the matching accessory. As soon as I saw it I was so happy I was able to purchase it! I love all the colors and the adorable detail! My pics don’t do it justice either! If you love Fall colors and villages this is a great addition to your collection! And Countrymoregifts is my go to place for my villages! They are the best with their customer care! Thank you Department 56 and Countrymoregifts!

Who doesn't love a hedgehog?

No true woodland collection is complete without a bevy of beasts great and small. This little hedgehog is no exception.

Beautiful Scene

This Santa with dove and animals is breathtaking alone, but will look amazing with other White Woodland pieces we have collected in the past few years. What I love about this Jim Shore grouping is the possibilities to decorate and incorporate other design elements (wood, snow, greenery) to complete the look. You could go rustic, elegant, or farmhouse and have the perfect pieces to compliment your winter/holiday decor.

Just Adorable

My mom is collecting various pieces in the White Woodland Collection. While trying not to have too many Santa pieces, the small animals have been a great addition to the group. I can't wait to see it all displayed!

Love That Max!

This piece was a no brainier decision to purchase! The sled is fantastic! The Grinch is perfectly pitched and....MAX!!! Max is the most loyal dog in the universe and just cute as can be! This piece really has the "Ahhhh" factor in spades.
