Ino Schaller Starry Red Winter Village Santa

Handcrafted Ino Schaller paper mache Santa, made in Germany. The Ino Schaller company is one of the last remaining family owned companies that hand crafts traditional paper mache figures, all from materials sourced and located in Germany. A hand painted, cozy starry night scene of a winter village full of snowy trees and fire lit cottages adorns this Santa's beautiful candy apple red coat, and even his sweet rosy cheeked face and bright blue eyes are hand painted! Once you actually see a Santa figure like this in person, you'll understand the craftsmanship and years of experience that went into making it. There's also a secret container under the base that can be accessed by removing the cardboard insert that is signed by the artist. These Ino Schaller pieces are the real deal, and it makes us proud to continue the tradition of collecting that they started over 100 years ago. Each piece is signed and stamped by the Ino Schaller family, 'This limited production 'papier mache' is hand-made in the original antique mold in Germany by INO SCHALLER.'
