Know before you buy

No, this accessory is designed exclusively for indoor display. Exposure to outdoor elements like moisture and direct sunlight can damage the resin and paint over time.
No, this is a static figurine accessory and does not feature any lighting or moving parts, so no batteries or power cords are required.
As part of the Christmas In The City collection, it is scaled to match other buildings and figures in the series. It works best as a foreground accent to help create a narrative scene within your village setup.
To keep the piece in good condition, gently dust it with a soft, dry brush or a microfiber cloth. Avoid using water or chemical cleaners, as these can strip the painted finish.
