Christmas Legends™ Collection The Little Drummer Boy - 1993
Product Description
Christmastide and "there seems to be magic in the very name." -Charles Dickens One of the sweetest legends of Christmas is taken from the carol, "The Little Drummer Boy." The legend tells of the little boy who played his drum for the Baby Jesus and was rewarded with the baby's tender smile. The Little Drummer Boy is dressed in garments of handwoven cotton and osnaburg. He wears sandals authentically recreated in our workshops. His drum is handcrafted of eucalyptus wood and rawhide. He is all-porcelain, 14" tall. Baby Jesus is all-porcelain, jointed, 9" long with painted intaglio eyes and wisps of brown curls. He is dressed and swaddled in natural linen and lays in a handmade wooden manger.
