Know before you buy
No, this piece is designed exclusively for indoor use. The paper mache construction is not weather-resistant and should be kept away from moisture and direct outdoor elements.
To maintain the finish, simply wipe the figurine gently with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners, as these can damage the paper mache material and the glitter accents.
No, the Puppy for Christmas Santa arrives as a single, fully assembled piece. You can place it directly into your holiday display right out of the box.
While the design is often referred to as a 14-inch figure, the exact height is 13.5 inches. This makes it a versatile size for mantels, tabletops, or bookshelves.
Because the piece is hand-painted and finished with decorative glitter, some minor shedding is normal during handling. Once placed in a stationary display, it will remain stable.
