SANTAS FOR
SALE #9

This Russian Santa above is a favorite of many collectors because of the many and varied hand-carved details all over the Russian Santa. Many collectors
of the Russian Santas enjoy the variances among the different figures as depicted by both the artists and by the master woodcarvers. A collector may
have Russian Santas of various sizes and stances. Some of the Father Frost figures are slightly hunched over while still others stand upright or lean on a
staff. There are certain carvers who like to seat the Santa on an animal, such as a polar bear or a reindeer. The most popular carving seems to be the
Santa with his head slightly tilted, holding a staff and possibly a sack over his shoulder. The Russian artist takes over after the carver finishes his creation.
The artist breathes life into the carved wooden figure through the finely painted details in the facial features and the depiction of hand painted scenes on
the front and/or back of the cloak. These amazing Russian Santas are truly beautiful to behold and to share with friends and family.
These two hand carved, hand painted Russian Santas are very different in both the carvings and the design by the Russian
artist. The most impressive part of the first Father Frost figure is the realistic face (both in its carving and painting) and the
hand-painted scene on the back of the cloak. The detail on this Russian Santa is very finely hand- painted by the Russian artist
with the fine red cloak, facial coloring and picture on the reverse side of the cloak. The Russian Santa also carries a staff in
one hand. The Santa's facial expression is demure and sincere. His blue eyes gaze out from a finely detailed and carved face.

The second hand carved figure is very detailed by the master woodcarver! This Russian Santa holds a sack above his head
and has a very merry expression on his face. His blue eyes are twinkling and very engaging. This Santa is very large and
beautiful!

Russian Santas!
How would you like to have this impressive 14 inch tall Russian Santa as your centerpiece for the holidays or to display throughout
the year? The intricate and detailed hand carvings are amazing to see. The Russian artist has lightly painted the face with just
enough paint to give the face a realistic look. The front, back and all around the Santa have such special carvings that have taken
the master woodcarver many hours and weeks to complete.
The Russian artist has hand painted this wonderful winter scene of the little
Russian girl pensively gazing out the window at the snowy day. Her kitten sits
beside her at the windowsill and perhaps is looking upon the bird!
