UNIQUE SET OF 4 HAND-CARVED WOODEN SANTA KEEPSAKE BOXES
A rare and charming set of four vintage, hand-carved wooden Santa Claus figurines (also known as Ded Moroz or Father Frost), standing approximately 5 inches tall. This collectible set is perfect for enthusiasts of vintage Christmas decor, Russian folk art, and unique storage pieces.
1. Hand-Carved Quality: These figures are not mass-produced plastic. They are meticulously hand-carved from wood, featuring beautifully sculpted, three-dimensional beards and coats—a hallmark of quality European folk art.
2. Keepsake Box Function: Each figurine is styled like a traditional Matryoshka doll, separating cleanly at the waist. Unlike nesting dolls, these are four individual figures, and the fully hollow body allows them to be used as a keepsake box, trinket holder, or special gift container.
3. Vibrant Folk Art: Each Santa is individually hand-painted in rich seasonal colors and finished with a durable lacquer. The set of four offers fantastic display variety.
