What Are Disney Traditions Figurines?
Disney Traditions is a popular collection of handcrafted figurines that combine the magic of Disney with a distinctive folk-art style.

From Mickey Mouse to Beauty and the Beast, each piece captures the timeless charm of classic Disney films. The line has become a must-have for collectors and fans of all ages, especially in the UK, where Disney memorabilia has a loyal fanbase.
What Are Disney Traditions Made Of?
One of the most common questions collectors ask is:
"What are Disney Traditions figurines made of?"
Each Disney Traditions figurine is made from high-quality stone resin, a durable and finely crafted material that allows for exceptional detail. Jim Shore uses a unique hand-carved look with quilt-like patterns, giving each figure a rustic, storybook charm.
Every figurine is then hand-painted, adding to the uniqueness of each piece. No two are exactly alike, making them even more special for collectors.
