Welcome to Victorian England, where famed author Charles Dickens grew up and set many of his iconic stories. Now the distinct and vibrant style of Dickens and his world can be a part of your village through elaborate decorations by Department 56. In this set of two figurines, a couple of gents enjoy a pipe. These pieces were created to sit on bench or wall (bench is not included). This village accessory set is hand-crafted and hand-painted from porcelain. About Department 56: For 40 years, Department 56 has been creating holiday traditions passed down from generation to generation. The excitement of the holiday season comes home with intricately detailed villages from settings that inspire the imagination. Stroll through a small American town, enjoy a walk with Charles Dickens, or visit Santa in the North Pole. Our ornaments and figurines create even more opportunities to spread good wishes during the happiest time of the year.
