Celebrating 30 Years of Creativity
     
 

When Department 56 introduced The Original Snow Village© collection in 1976, we took great pride in having created a unique and beautiful holiday treasure. To our delight, countless families in the United States and Canada have used our lighted villages and seasonal accessories as the creative centerpiece of their own holiday celebrations.

 

  
         

Department 56 is proud to present for 2006 the following collections:

Snow Village© Collection - Built with the same traditions and values found in small towns across America.

North Pole SeriesTM - Inspired by the magic, charming legend of Santa’s North Pole, our porcelain series brings Christmas dreams to life for the young and the young-at-heart.

Dickens’ Village Series® - Let this finely-detailed, hand-painted porcelain lighted series inspired by Charles Dickens’ Victorian England inspire your feelings of Christmases past and Christmases to come.

Christmas in the City® Series - With all of its hustle and bustle, these hand-painted porcelain buildings and accessories capture the excitement of a city.

 
 

New England Village® Series - There is something special about New England and its history that calls to all of us. This delicately hand-painted porcelain series portrays a simpler time in America.

Alpine Village Series® - The intricately detailed lighted buildings and accessories of this series are as diverse as the towns and hamlets in the Alpine and Bavarian regions they represent.

Our creativity has taken beyond what we could ever have imagined in 1976. And the best is yet to come.
