Dtc.  It's interesting to note that each consecutive tile includes the items from the previous days, so the images become increasingly complex.  It's a very interesting, beautiful and artistic set, colorful with lots of gold work.  Though vintage, this set is in outstanding condition, ready for display!  Each tile measures about 6" square, and is backed with a felt covered hanger, with an attached card printed in red with the lyrics to the 12 Days of Christmas song.  Most of the felt backings are in excellent condition, though a few have worn places on the back (see photo for example). Not to worry as these do not impact the integrity of the tiles or impact their beauty upon display.  These are just spectacular!  They are solid ceramic tiles, and very heavy!  Shipping weight for the entire set is estimated at about 10 lbs. with proper packaging.  Domestic shipping costs are based on USPS Parcel Post calculated from the estimated package weight and your zip code. If you need your item more quickly, please inquire about upgrading to USPS Priority Mail.
