ORDER TODAYNo, not a witch! A figure from Italian folklore, La Befana was visited by the Magi on their journey to see the Christ child but declined to join them, choosing to stay home and tend to her chores. Regretting her decision, she now wanders the world on Epiphany Eve, leaving gifts for children in the hope of finding the Christ child, embodying the spirit of generosity and redemption. Here are two beautifully hand-painted chalkware pieces to celebrate the upcoming Epiphany and honor this timeless tradition.
Shop La BefanaWe have gone back to print with a second edition hardcover of Gary’s book, It’s Hard To Tell When a Tradition Begins… A Vaillancourt Christmas. This edition includes a new foreword that shares an emotional story about discovering the Vaillancourt family’s roots and their unexpected connection to Christmas. It felt like destiny when Gary and Judi visited a 13th-century church, coincidentally named after St. Nicholas, where the first Vaillancourt to come to America had his baptismal records.
ORDER BOOKIt should come as no surprise that some of the most cherished pieces of the ’80s and ’90s look a lot different than the pieces of today. As we continue our year long celebration, we’re pleased to re-stock dozens of Museum Vault pieces as a tip of the hat to four decades of chalkware.
Shop Museum VaultLast one for the season! A statement piece to the Gingerbread Series, this near-2-foot-tall Hunched Santa is ornately painted in a lace-like pattern of Victorian gingerbread. With a red coat, this striking piece is part bold, yet whimsical, with a gentle face and striking eyes. Created in 2019, this is an alternative to the British-inspired Brown Hunched Gingerbread Santa.
See Statement PiecesWe’re pleased to have several new products to adorn your walls in celebration of Dickens and A Christmas Carol. Created as an exclusive, and made in America, these framed works are classic and elegant. Designed to hang, either on the wall or add some ribbon for the tree, there’s no better way to celebrate dickens.
