The amazing quality of these hand carved, hand painted Russian Santas will ensure their lasting enjoyment for many,
many years. Just think of all the work that goes into each hand carved face with all the details in the eyes, nose and
flowing beards of each Russian Santa. The carver must take each large, solid piece of linden wood and then begin to
put a personality into the form that he creates. Some Santas are very jolly looking while others are more pensive or
wistful. The master carver must decide what his Father Frost figure will become. He can choose stout, or skinny or
tall or with a sack at his side or over his shoulder. After the master carver finishes his Russian Santa form, the artist
begins to work to make the form come alive. The artist gives the eyes of the Russian Santa their twinkle or puts a
merry smile on the face of the wooden carved Santa. It is the job of the artist to also create each scene that might be
painted on the cloak and whether to paint a scene on the front and back of the cloak or on the sack. The final product
reflects both the talents of the master carver and the artist to create one Russian Santa.

Look at this beautiful group of hand crafted wooden Russian Santas! Each one has a wonderfully carved face with fine
facial features and a realistic expression. What a fabulous display for the collector! The Russian Santa is beloved and valued
as a genuine hand-crafted piece of art. The fact that each one is individually hand carved and made from a single piece of
linden wood makes the Father Frost figure unique. The Russian artist then chooses a scene to paint on the cloak and perhaps
on the sack. The back of the cloak may also have a painted scene, or it may be an intricate floral design with flecks of gold or
dabs of paint to resemble tiny jewels. The Russian Santa also holds a stick or a staff in one hand as he makes his way
through the forest or the countryside.
