Byers Choice George Washington Inaugural Caroler

Introducing the Byers’ Choice George Washington Caroler, a Mount Vernon exclusive. This 13-inch handcrafted figure commemorates one of the most iconic events in American history—George Washington’s first inauguration on April 30, 1789.

The caroler is dressed in a meticulously recreated version of Washington’s inaugural suit, originally tailored from brown broadcloth produced by the Hartford Woolen Manufactory in Connecticut. The original suit, now preserved at a conservation center, symbolizes Washington’s commitment to supporting American industry and craftsmanship.

On that historic morning, Washington stepped onto the balcony of Federal Hall in New York City to take the oath of office. This caroler captures the gravity and grace of that moment, complete with a tricorn hat in one hand and a Bible in the other—details drawn from eyewitness accounts.

Details:

• Handmade in Pennsylvania
• Size: Approximately 13.5″ tall
• Material: Made with a combination of wire, fabric, and clay
• Individually crafted, so no two are exactly alike
• MOUNT VERNON EXCLUSIVE

Whether displayed alone or paired with our Martha Washington carolers, this piece is a timeless keepsake for history enthusiasts and collectors alike. Bring home a piece of America’s founding legacy.
