This striking lot features seven meticulously handcrafted figurines from the celebrated artist Jacqueline Kent's 2005 "Carollers" collection. Standing approximately 8 to 20 inches tall on traditional wooden bases, each figure captures the whimsical spirit of a Victorian Christmas with lifelike resin faces, festive layered textiles, and character-specific accessories.
The performance of a lifetime has just arrived in one festive lot. This isn't merely a collection; it's a neighborhood frozen in a moment of Christmas magic. Leading the group is the beloved Nana, her presence as warm as her crimson robe, while Mr. Birmingham stands ready with the evening's setlist.While the ensemble is regal, it isn't without its secrets. Miss O'Hare and the elusive Mr. Malone had a bit of a holiday mix-up during the post-carol festivities. As a result, Miss O’Hare will arrive safely tucked into Mr. Malone's original 'home' (box), clutching his COA as a souvenir of the 'Great Box Escape of 2024.' It’s a bit of character lore that makes this specific set one of a kind.
This merry neighborhood includes Nana (2006) and Uncle Simon (2006); the distinguished Mr. Birmingham (2003); and the delightful trio of Scotty (2004), Gabby (2003), and Maisy (2003)—joined, of course, by the adventurous Miss O’Hare (2004).
Materials: Hand-painted resin, mixed textiles (velvet, wool, faux fur), wooden bases.Dimensions: Ranging from approx. 19" to 22" (Grand Scale).Condition: Excellent vintage condition; textiles are vibrant and structures are sound.Included: 3 Original Boxes and 3 Certificates of Authenticity (Maisy, Gabby, and the "Malone" souvenir).
Knowing these characters are as much a part of your holiday tradition as they are ours, they will be handled with the utmost reverence. Arriving ever so carefully packaged and nestled in a cloud of protective wrap, they are certain to delight from the very moment you open the box. Whether they are joining an established village or starting a new family legacy, this ensemble is ready to step out of their travels and straight into the heart of your home.
While this choir holds the melody of the square, rumors are swirling that two more magical residents have just arrived. If you’re looking for a dash of enchantment to watch over the singers, you might find a certain Fairy Godmother and her stylish friend Valerie waiting in our other listings. After all, every great performance deserves a little magic behind the scenes.
Curator's Description: A spectacular, grand-scale ensemble of seven authentic early-2000s holiday figures from the celebrated "Carollers" collection by designer Jacqueline Kent. Standing an impressive 19 to 22 inches tall on traditional wooden plinths, this character-rich choir is meticulously crafted with highly expressive, hand-painted resin faces and heavily layered textile outfitting. The group's palette centers on traditional winter luxury, spotlighting heavy crimson velvet, forest green woolens, and deep charcoal tweeds, beautifully accented by plush cream faux-fur trims and vintage-style sheet music. Capturing the quintessential romance of a Victorian Christmas, this substantial, 7-piece statement vignette is perfectly suited for an upscale entryway console, grand mantel installation, or a curated traditional holiday storefront display.
