Inspired by Thomas Nast's American Santa of the 1800’s,
this 18” Santa is decked out in his silk velvet jump suit trimmed in white fur, a black belt with a shiny gold buckle that matches his gold buckles on his sculpted black boots. His beard is meticulously groomed and he proudly
wears a beautiful handlebar mustache.
His arms are overflowing with soon to be delivered gifts
to all of the good little boys and girls.
His forest green velvet bag is bulging with gifts and
held together with gold cord and tassels.
He holds in his arms, a nut cracker soldier, guitar, gold bugle,
And a hand made book depicting a picture on the front cover of the original “Nast”.
Also, he gently holds a newly sculpted dapple gray pony, a tiny train
and carries a sculpted victorian long stemmed pipe in his right hand.
There’s no question that this jolly old elf is the “Real Santa”.
