Product Overview
This fantastic Russian Santa Claus is intricately hand painted by the artist to enhance details in the face, beard and costume - including a Christmas village painted on the back of his bag. Notice Santa has a staff in his hand and a troika painted on the front - (three-horse sleigh) racing through the snow with some Russian architecture in the background. This is one of the most popular Russian scenes, representing winter fun, youthful attitude, and happy holidays . This Santa has matte finish. The solid linden wood is dried for almost 2 years before it is carved so it will last a lifetime. This Grandfather Frost (as he is called in Russia) is made in Sergiev Posad, Russia and is signed by the artist. Approximately 10" tall.
