Department 56 The Original Snow Village The Secret Garden Greenhouse 54949

The Original Snow Village
Just imagine... snow-laden trees, wreaths at the windows, and welcome mats out. These images have come to represent the charming buildings and soft glowing lights of The Original Snow Village. A holiday outing to a small river town was the inspiration for The Original Snow Village. The hope was to recreate the feeling the town conveyed to everyone that night.

Each piece in The Original Snow Village is handcrafted of ceramic, individually hand painted, and fired with a glazed finish. Extensive research contributes to the charm and detail of each piece. Cast into the mold is the Department 56% logo-a guarantee of authenticity. Every year pieces are retired from production and the molds broken. This limits the number of pieces and allows for new additions. Special pieces often are created for The Original Snow Village. These include year of production pieces, event pieces, buildings that recognize our American architecture, and special licenses, each adding to the character of the Village and capturing the imagination.

The Secret Garden Greenhouse
English horticulturist John Evelyn is credited with coining the word greenhouse, but mum is the word at this flourishing business because even the poinsettias aren't talking. Whether you have a green thumb or you are all thumbs, the silk flowers require very little care just a little moisture every time it snows
