Product Overview
Seeing a chimney sweep on the day of your wedding is good luck - but why? According to legend, in 1066, King William of Great Britain found himself in the way of an out-of-control carriage. A chimney sweep pushed him to safety. King William was so grateful for the act that he invited the chimney sweep to his daughter's wedding, declared chimney sweeps to be lucky and that they would be the only service profession allowed to wear top hats, which were previously only worn by royalty and the gentry.

"No two Carolers are ever the same. Byers' Choice artisans create a unique character and personality in each figure by using a variety of techniques and materials. Each crafter leaves a little bit of herself in every figure she touches. As many as ten people will work on one Caroler. Consequently, it is almost impossible to find two Carolers that are exactly alike." -- Joyce Byer
