Vintage 1991 Primitive Folk Art Paper-Mache Santa Claus Figurine
Capture the nostalgic, cozy charm of a traditional country Christmas with this beautiful Vintage 1991 Primitive Folk Art Santa Claus. Hand-painted and dated by its original creator, this collectible holiday figurine features an elongated, cone-shaped silhouette characteristic of classic old-world Father Christmas designs.
Meticulously detailed with deep crimson tones, forest green mittens, and a base border decorated with charming primitive hearts, this piece is finished with a stunning, textured wool beard and hair that adds incredible tactile dimension. Standing proud at 15" tall, it serves as an excellent foundational centerpiece for a rustic mantel, farmhouse holiday display, or vintage holiday collection.
