Children tend to press their noses to this globe, because the gingerbread village inside truly turns, circling slowly while glitter drifts over its iced rooftops. The whole scene sits in a frosted cupcake base with a peppermint candy crowning the dome, a sweet shop look that suits a kitchen shelf as well as the mantel. From RAZ Imports, it is the kind of piece a family unpacks first each December. Surprise the household whose holidays start with a gingerbread kit, or the snow globe collector who has never owned one that moves.
