Description
This large gingerbread house Christmas decoration brings the look of a baker's festive showpiece into the home, in warm gingerbread brown with thick white icing running down its steep roof. Every detail is moulded in relief: candy canes tied in a bow at the peak, a green wreath with a red bow, two arched windows framed in red and white stripes, and green double doors beneath an iced porch topped with a peppermint swirl. A gingerbread boy in green dungarees and a gingerbread girl in a red dress stand either side of the door, and a chimney capped with icing rises at one side. It is made from resin and stands 94cm tall, 49.5cm wide and 15cm deep.
At 94cm, it is sized for the floor or a low sideboard rather than the tree, and it looks at home in a hallway, beside the fireplace, at the foot of the stairs or in a corner of the living room. Its slim 15cm depth lets it sit close to a wall without taking over the room, so it suits narrower spaces too. It is a cheerful choice for anyone who loves a traditional Christmas, and a generous gift for a family who decorate early and like their home to feel properly festive each December.
The resin body holds its moulded detail crisply, from the dotted icing to the striped frame around the door, and the flat iced base lets it stand upright without hanging fixings. To keep it looking fresh, dust it with a soft dry cloth and wipe away marks with a slightly damp cloth. When the season ends, wrap it before packing it away so the candy cane bow at the top stays protected. For a fuller festive scene, gather wrapped presents at its base or set a pair of lanterns either side of it in the hallway to greet guests as they arrive.

Frequently Asked
How big is the gingerbread house?
It stands 94cm tall, 49.5cm wide and 15cm deep, so it is a large floor or sideboard piece rather than a small ornament.
Can it hang on the Christmas tree?
No, at 94cm tall it is far too large for a tree. It stands upright on its flat iced base on the floor, a sideboard or a wide, sturdy shelf.
What is the gingerbread house made from?
It is made from resin, sometimes called polystone, which holds the fine moulded detail of the icing, candy canes, wreath and gingerbread figures.
What colours is it?
It is mainly a warm gingerbread brown with white icing, with red and green accents on the candy canes, wreath, door, windows and the two gingerbread figures.
How do I keep it clean?
Dust it with a soft dry cloth and wipe away any marks with a slightly damp cloth, as is good practice for resin decorations.
Would it make a good Christmas gift?
Yes, it is a generous gift for anyone who loves a traditional Christmas, especially a family with a hallway or fireside corner to fill each December.
