This is a vintage/antique Santa Claus on a base. He is unmarked, but may have been made in Japan. He stands 10.5" high on a round base. He is approximately 3.75" in width through his body and 3.5" in depth through his middle. He is straw filled. You can feel it when you squeeze him. You can also see a glimpse of the straw in pictures 3 and 4. Just to the left of the staff he is carrying is a small hole in his faded red pants. You can see the tan color of the straw. His face and hands are composition. His beard and mustache are cotton. His jacket and cap are a soft red flannel or wool. His faded red pants are cotton. His boots are leather or a leather-like material. You can see in picture 5 that t is a split in his left boot. It is a minor flaw, but worth mentioning. His belt is black ribbon with a silver leathery buckle. His coat and cap are trimmed in white rabbit fur which has worn away in some places (pictures 3, 7 & 8). He carries a long wooden stick or staff in his right hand. His left hand is cupped as if to hold something. He has a faded green cotton toy bag slung over his left shoulder. He has great blue eyes. Some of the flesh-colored finish has worn off of his right hand (picture 2). Some of the rabbit trim has worn away around the front of his cap and his mustache is a bit sooty (picture 2). Still he is quite charming.
