Vintage Ceramic Christmas Santa Gingerbread Houses (2) Light-Up & Candle Holder

Description

View Vintage Ceramic Christmas Santa Gingerbread Houses (2) Light-Up & Candle Holder with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. No cracks through the ceramic, no repairs, and both display beautifully. Warm yellow glow shines beautifully through the windows when lit (see photo). Brick-look base with glowing windows, brown door, holly accents, and two adorable pink puppies sitting out front. Sweet pair of vintage ceramic Christmas houses, perfect for adding that cozy, nostalgic glow to your holiday village display. Both pieces date to the mid-century era (likely 1950s–1970s) and feature hand-painted “cold-paint” details typical of the period. They show honest age and gentle use with some paint loss, cracking, and light crazing – exactly the kind of character collectors love in true vintage pieces. Larger Light-Up House (Electric): Approx. 6.5" tall × 7.75" wide × 5" deep Brick-look base with glowing windows, brown door, holly accents, and two adorable pink puppies sitting out front Santa Claus figure emerging from the chimney (complete with lantern) Takes a standard Christmas village bulb (original cord, bulb, and inline on/off switch included and in working order) Warm yellow glow shines beautifully through the windows when lit (see photo) Smaller Candle House (Votive/Tea Light): Approx. 4.25" tall × 4" wide Snow-covered red roof with icicles, green window frames, and a cheerful molded Santa holding a lantern on the front wall Designed as a votive or tea-light holder – place a candle inside and light shines through the windows and open chimney Classic red/green/white color scheme with a little evergreen tree on the side Condition: Both are in overall good vintage condition with expected paint wear, flaking, and minor chips (most noticeable on the roofs and high points – please zoom in on all photos). No cracks through the ceramic, no repairs, and both display beautifully. There is a small chip to the lighted house shown in the last image, it is actually hard to see because the clay is about the same color as the thrum on this house which I think is supposed to look like gingerbread. The electric house lights up perfectly; the candle house is ready for your favorite votive. Perfect for collectors of vintage Christmas ceramics, napkin-holder-style villages, or anyone who loves quirky mid-century holiday décor. These little houses have that irresistible retro charm that new reproductions just can’t match! Sold together as a lot – two charming pieces ready to light up your holidays! Will be very carefully packed for shipping Condition: Used. Category: Collectibles › Holiday & Seasonal › Villages & Houses. Brand: Unbranded.
