Hand carved, hand painted Russian Santa holding large lantern in one hand and staff in his other hand. This beautifully hand
crafted Father Frost figure is carved entirely by hand from a large, single piece of linden wood that has been aged for
approximately two years or more. The master carver has finely honed the face to create a merry, smiling face. The Santa's
beard is full and flows over his cloak. The scene that the Russian artist painted depicts the countryside at sunrise on a
winter's day. The villager in the sled is going off to a day's work over the snow-covered roads. The artist has painted the
back of the cloak with a floral design in reds and gold. The lantern in the hand of the wooden Russian Santa is removable.
The Santa stands 12 inches tall and 6 inches across the base.

Custom Order: Steps that occur in a custom order are outlined below. This custom order shows the finished carved
Russian Santa form. The customer had an idea in mind about a particular type of Santa figure and submitted several pictures
to me of the forms that he thought he would like carved.
Russian Santa form. The customer had an idea in mind about a particular type of Santa figure and submitted several pictures
to me of the forms that he thought he would like carved.
The next step occurred when I emailed the pictures to the artisans in Russia. While we both waited, we weren't sure
that the idea could be created into a Santa. The master carver took all the pictures and then did create a form that
outdid our expectations. As you can see, this Russian Santa figure is absolutely beautiful. It's very unique and special
to this customer. The following step after the carver finishes his work is for the Russian artist to start to think of ideas
for scenes on the Santa's cloak. The customer can also submit ideas and pictures for the artist to try to accommodate
on the form. The artist takes over where the master carver left off and finishes the Russian Santa figure so that it
comes to life! It takes great artistic talent to make the face and skin tones lifelike and to paint some of the miniature
scenes on the cloak that are constraints of the amount of space available on the carved wooden Russian Santa.
The last step is the customer's final approval. Without that, no sale is considered final. The ultimate goal of my company
is to achieve total customer satisfaction and to add a figure of lasting value and enjoyment to his or her collection.
Please view the completed pictures of the finished Russian Santa below! This is an absolute masterpiece for the
collector
