Keepsake Santa 4” - red and gold

A small hand-carved wood Santa figurine from the Keepsake Collection — a series of detailed Santa carvings, each about 4" tall. Carved entirely by hand from a solid basswood block, with old-world robes painted in red and gold, and finished with Howard Feed-N-Wax, a wood polish conditioner made with beeswax and orange oil that protects the wood and enhances its natural grain.
 
Each piece is individually hand-carved by Indiana Artisan Maria Patterson, so slight variations are part of what makes it one-of-a-kind — no two are exactly alike. A charming, heirloom-quality holiday piece, and a thoughtful handmade gift for anyone who collects Santa figurines or traditional holiday carvings.
 
Care: Keep indoors, away from direct sunlight. For long-term care, lightly dust with a soft brush and reapply a wood conditioner like Howard Feed-N-Wax occasionally to maintain the finish.
