The Delivering Coal for the Hearth accessory captures a vital part of Victorian winter life, keeping homes warm during the coldest months. This detailed set features a horse-drawn cart piled high with coal and two hard-working figures: the driver guiding the horse and a coal deliveryman carrying a bucket and broom.
Perfect for adding realism and everyday life to your Dickens’ Village display, this piece tells the story of early morning deliveries, the clatter of wagon wheels on cobblestone, and the importance of a well-stocked hearth in a snowy Victorian city.
