Dickens Village Joseph Edward Tea Shop

Department 56 is proud to celebrate over 40 years of Village design with careful attention to historical accuracy, architectural details and realism in each piece they introduce.
Open the door to Victorian England which at the time of Charles Dickens was the center of culture for the world and where many traditions we celebrate today took shape. The architecture, customs and history of Victorian England are inherent in the Dickens’ Village Series. These distinguished and quaint buildings and accessories are an inspiration to all who make them part of their holiday traditions.
During the 1800s, it was popular to speculate which clipper ship carrying tea from the Far East would arrive first in London. The side of our Joseph Edward Tea Shoppe includes a sign announcing the race updates. Hand painted porcelain with cord & bulb.
