Product Details
Betsy Trotwood's Cottage brings one of Charles Dickens' most memorable characters home to the village. From David Copperfield, the cottage is rendered by Department 56 for the Dickens' Village Series in hand-painted porcelain, with traditional windows, carefully sculpted architectural detail, and a warm glow when lit.
Introduced in 1989 and retired in 1992, this Heritage Village Collection piece has become harder to find with its matching original box. This example is in excellent vintage condition and includes a NEW replacement light cord and bulb, so it can take its place in your Christmas village display right away.
