This lovely Jane Austen decoration comes to us from the St. Nicolas company in London, England. It is about six inches in height and made from cloth.

The St. Nicolas company specializes in “bespoke” Christmas tree decorations and souvenirs. St. Nicolas’s beautiful handcrafted pieces can be bought at museum shops and historic homes in numerous countries. On our Bayou City Press Christmas Travel Tree, we have St. Nicolas decorations from the Hastings Museum (William the Conqueror and King Harold), London (Westminster Abbey), Paris (Notre Dame), Chenonceau (Diane de Poitiers and the chateau), and Dublin (St. Patrick), among other St. Nicolas items.

The Jane Austen ornament is made by women associated with a small Christian charity in Thailand that helps disadvantaged rural women find work in their community. St. Nicolas is a member of BAFTS (British Association of Fair Trade Suppliers) and supports the 10 Principles of Fair Trade, as set out by the World Fair Trade Organization.

Bayou City Press has admired the St. Nicolas figurines for years, and we are pleased to be able to offer this Jane Austen decoration to our subscribers.
