The Vintage Gingerbread Vendor and Children by Department 56 brings a lively little holiday encounter to a miniature village. A vendor guides a laden sled, while two children stand together enjoying the seasonal treats.
The colorful coats, tiny gingerbread figures, and snow-like bases create a scene that feels cheerful without requiring an elaborate setting. The vendor and sled form one grouping, with the children on a separate base, allowing the two pieces to be positioned naturally within your own arrangement.
Part of the Dickens’ Village Series in the Heritage Village Collection, this vintage accessory set adds human interest beside miniature shops and houses. Display the pieces together to preserve their shared story, or let the small gap between them suggest a bustling village street. The set includes the vendor grouping and the two-child grouping.
