Handmade Christmas Illumination Model Alpine Houses, Medium

£245.00

Currently out of stock

With no apology, please enjoy this as pure Christmas indulgence and a nostalgic memory of early 20th century Europe with these handmade model Alpine houses. 

Made for over 100 years (especially prolifically before WWI) these houses are assembled entirely by hand in card - punched out, cut, glued and painted to fashion a miniature pastoral village to inspire a wholesome and warm fuzzy feeling inside.

Known as "illumination houses" these beautiful models are lit from within (they are fitted with a small lightbulb) and can make the most beautiful and enchanting Christmas display for your window - and this hopefully with more elegance and poise over the customary LED decorations... 

Each house is beautifully assembled and complete with many charming and humorous details including inside windows and doors. 

Consider each house with others as a group, but individually also, they would make an amazing showpiece.
