Know before you buy
This is a traditional candy container, meaning it is hollow inside. You can remove the top portion to store small treats or trinkets, staying true to the historic German design.
The glitter is applied as part of the hand-painting process. While it is designed to be decorative and long-lasting, you should handle the figurine gently to prevent minor shedding over time.
No, this piece is intended for indoor use only. The papier-mâché material is sensitive to moisture and humidity, which could damage the structure and the hand-painted finish.
No, each Santa is handcrafted in Germany using historic molds and traditional papier-mâché techniques. Because they are hand-painted by artisans, each piece will have slight variations that make it unique.
Use a soft, dry cloth or a gentle dusting brush to clean the surface. Avoid using water, cleaning sprays, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the paint and the glitter finish.
