He ...was faced with a dilemma...he had never seen a decorated Christmas tree! In his first sketch, the presents were suspended from the branches. "Wouldn't that cause them to droop?"he wondered. He amended his sketches when told the American tradition was to place gifts under the tree. Holdway used another Christmas icon in a most delightful way, adorning the top of the tree with jolly St. Nick. We find his design both unique and charming, as do Spode Christmas Tree lovers the world over.

To get combined shipping, contact me for a combined shipping quote. I can't combine shipping on items already purchased. I list my items at a price that I think is fair. If you do not like the price, please feel free to purchase the items from someone else. I will not respond to offers.* I use a Lufkin brand tape measure to measure all of my items. Depending on how you measure, and what you use to measure, the measurements of the item may vary slightly. I do my best to list the size accurately, but the size may vary by 1/8". I don't use "stock" or manufacturer's sizing. I measure the actual item that I have.----------------- I accept returns. Buyer is responsible for the shipping (both ways) on returned items. You will only receive a refund on the cost of the item, not shipping charges.I use the USPS shipping calculator for shipping. I enter the weight of the item plus packaging and then USPS does the rest. I cannot lower shipping because it is determined by USPS, not me.Please ask questions if you are unsure about an item. I would rather you ask questions than be disappointed.I will do local pick up on any of my items. If you live in the greater Philadelphia area - please contact me about pick ups in Bucks County. It saves me on packing materials and you on shipping costs.------------------I am sometimes asked to break up sets. I can't do this for several reasons. It takes time to photograph items for each listing. If a set is broken up, new photographs will have to be taken.Additionally, it takes time to write up each listing. If a set is broken up, the listing would need to be ended and a new listings created. Also, eBay charges by the listing. So if I end a listing of 3 items, and have to relist as a set of 2 and a set of 1, I will have had to pay the listing fee 3 times. It is for these reasons that I only sell items as they are listed and will not break up sets. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. ----------
