Our new Harry Potter™ Village Collection is set to fly off the shelves…
We’re super proud to present this magical new licensed Harry Potter™ collection from Department 56, with inspired items that are bound to fly off the shelves and into the shopping trolleys of Harry Potter™ fans up and down the country!
From the company famed for recreating villages in small but perfectly formed detail, The Harry Potter™ Village Collection, is simply spellbinding in its attention to detail, recreating scenes and sets from the Harry Potter films in your customers’ homes.
Collaborating closely with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, the collection is authentically designed to capture the spirit of the wizarding world. Whether a fan of the original film series, a collector of movie memorabilia, or parents hoping to share the magic with children, these pieces from Department 56 are a charmed gift or self-purchase.
The recreation of the Hogwarts™ School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, shows a portion of the School grounds, highlighting the Great Hall and the Great Tower. Standing at 33cm tall and fitted with LED lights that are powered by a USB power adaptor, this side elevation of the school which Harry Potter calls home is truly magical when it gently glows.
A hero piece of the collection, fans can also get their hands on other iconic buildings from the books and movies, which like the Great Hall and Tower, also light up giving a mysterious yet magical glow, including Hogwarts™ Astronomy Tower, Ollivander’s Wand Shop, The Burrow and Hagrid’s Hut.
Of course, no scene would be complete without accessories to bring the set to life. Take a look at these pieces like Chasing the Snitch and an inspired replica of the Hogwarts™ Express Train, which was of course used to transport Harry Potter and his friends to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, departing from Platform 9 ¾ at Kings Cross Stationin London.
Customers can also take home their favourite characters including Harry and the Headmaster (Dumbledore – of course!), Ron and Hermione, Fred and George Weasley, Hagrid, Malfoy, Professor Snape and Professor McGonagall too! Thanks to our life-like figurines, fans can recreate the scenes of their favourite Harry Potter moments, using the characters, set against the backdrop of the scenes.
Not familiar with Department 56? Let us shed some light on the situation for you…
Over thirty years ago, Department 56 began as part of Bachman's, a premiere retail florist in Minneapolis. Bachman's used a numbering system to identify each of its departments. The number assigned to wholesale gift imports division was, you guessed it, 56.
Now headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, Department 56 has become a leader in the giftware, collectibles and holiday decorating industry and is best known for its hand-crafted lighted villages. The Harry Potter Village Collection is the latest addition to a growing portfolio of licensed products, and we’re sure your customers are going to be just as enchanted with these pieces as we are!
About Wizarding World
More than two decades ago, a young Harry Potter was whisked onto Platform 9¾ at King’s Cross Station, and readers everywhere were swept along with him into a magical universe, created by J.K. Rowling. In the years since, the seven Harry Potter bestsellers have inspired eight blockbuster movies, an award-winning stage play, and, more recently, the start of the Fantastic Beasts five-film series. People of all ages have been enthralled by these extraordinary adventures, set within an expanding universe, inspired by the vision of J.K. Rowling.
For today’s growing worldwide fan community, and for generations to come, the Wizarding World welcomes everyone to explore more of this magical universe — past, present and future. The Wizarding World also provides fans with an instant, trusted kite-mark of quality and authenticity.
