Bring the magical charm of an old-world European winter into your home with this exquisite, hand-cast plaster Father Christmas figurine. Standing at a petite 4 5/8” inches tall, this cabinet-sized Belsnickel is a true miniature masterpiece cast directly from a rare, historic antique metal chocolate mold manufactured by the renowned Riecke & Co. in Germany.
Every detail has been lovingly hand-painted and finished in our studio to capture the authentic warmth of 19th-century folk art:
* The Robe & Hat: Finished in our signature, earthy Moss Green palette.
* The Features: He features a highly distinguished, multi-toned vintage silver-grey beard, soft rosy blushed cheeks, and a striking, bright blue-eyed gaze.
* The Base: Anchored by a clean, white-painted structural snowdrift base embedded with brilliant, icy clear holiday glitter, the 4” round wood base adds stability to the piece. It features our signature, hand-stamped genuine leather maker's mark: "Felt So Devine 2026” on the bottom.
* The Patina: Meticulously aged using a professional antiquing glaze followed by a protective dead-flat matte finish to ensure that coveted, velvety chalkware texture.
