Description

The listing, VINTAGE Wallace Silversmiths Solid Pewter Gingerbread House from their "Christmas Cookies" Line has ended.

10 day auction, no GIN. Feel free to research this collection line on eBay or your preferred site. I want you all to see JUST HOW HIGHLY VALUED AND COLLECTIBLE THESE ARE!

A copy of "Christmas Cookies" pamphlet that accompanied them all in their original boxes will be included in this auction. However I only have one original box and pamphlet which I will be auctioning after this one I have is sold.

When crafted, one limited edition design was made per holiday season. Made with the finest craftsmanship and detail, hand-painted, made of solid pewter with gold-tone overlay both on the front and back.

If you check my history of auctions, the last couple of these that I auctioned range in price from $25 to $130 on eBay!!

These solid pewter Festive Decorations can be used as ornaments on a Christmas tree, tied to ribbon on the outside of a very special gift, hung on a safety pin and attached to clothing, or as pendants worn on thicker or heavier chains.

They are at least a couple decades old, hand-painted with smooth-texture and vibrant color. There is a craftsman stamp on the back that reads "Wallace Silversmiths." They are based in Willingford, Connecticut.

The tops of all of these decorations have a shiny gold V-shaped attachment like you would see on a heavier pendant made for maybe a rope chain or thicker/solid chain. The item itself weighs approximately .7 to .9 of an ounce EACH. I do not know if this "Christmas Cookies" line are still being produced annually.

These "Christmas Cookies" line of Festive Decorations measure between approximately 1 1/2 to 2" in length and 3/4 to 1 1/4" in width on average, depending on each item and shape.

My research has shown that they specialize in items of very fine, detailed, hand-painted, high-end craftsmanship, using mostly pewter or the finest sterling silver or gold. They are best known for their fine flatware.

Do I understand that this comes with a pamphlet, but not the original box?

It comes with a photo copy of a Christmas cookies pamphlet, but after this auction ends, I will be putting up the only original box and original pamphlet so all those that have these or won any from me have an equal chance of getting them, since I sadly only have the 1 original.
