Mid Century Putz Beaded House, Church and Diorama (c.1950s)

Add to your winter village with this set of mid century Putz buildings that includes one beaded house, a large church and a mirrored diorama complete with a glass bead border. Beaded houses are scarce today and highly collectible.

These mini paper board houses were handcrafted in Japan during the 1950s. Most families set up a display area on a shelf, mantle or windowsill for the children to enjoy. Each year, the little town grew with more houses, trees and people. Slowly, a village was born.

These magical tiny houses are looking for a new home to bring wonder and joy to another family years to come.
