Celebrate the rich tradition of Victorian craftsmanship with "Culpepper's Ruby Jewelers," a captivating new figurine from Department 56's Dickens Village collection. This meticulously detailed piece captures the essence of a classic town jewelry shop, where the art of gemology flourishes.
In the Victorian era, skilled gemologists would "pellet" rubies, creating tiny jewels that were essential for the precise timekeeping in clocks and watches. "Culpepper's Ruby Jewelers" honors this tradition, showcasing the timeless elegance and meticulous craftsmanship of the period.
As we commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Dickens Village collection, this piece stands as a tribute to the traditional gift of 40 years – rubies. The beautifully crafted building features festive decorations, including wreaths and garlands, and intricate architectural details that bring the scene to life.
With its warmly lit windows and inviting storefront, "Culpepper's Ruby Jewelers" captures the festive spirit and historical charm of the era. The shop sign, "Horological Supply," highlights its importance in the community, providing essential jewels for timekeeping and exquisite pieces of jewelry for the townsfolk.
