How does the Griswold Holiday House light up and operate?

What materials and craftsmanship go into this Department 56 piece?

This lit building is hand-crafted from high-quality dolomite, a ceramic-like stone that holds fine sculptural detail and paint. Skilled artisans hand-paint each piece, producing subtle weathering, window glow, and characterful textures that make every house slightly unique.

• Hand-painted finish for realistic shading and depth
• Dolomite construction for long-lasting durability
• Intricate sculpting captures architectural details

What should I know about maintenance and display care?

• Clean with a soft, dry cloth or a soft-bristled brush
• Avoid water exposure to protect paint and electrical components
• Store in a cool, dry place with padding to prevent chips
