Yelloware Belsnickle Santa S204

$75.00

Bring a piece of New England folk art into your home for the holidays with this hand-crafted Yelloware Santa. This wonderful Santa figure was inspired by Early American Yelloware, hand crafted using an antique German chocolate mold.

The art of molding plaster of paris, referred to as chalkware, into holiday treasures is a centuries-old German tradition.

Bittersweet House Folk Art brings together the German tradition of folk art chalkware with the warmth and charm of antique yelloware from early American colonial days and offers a unique, hand-crafted treasure that will last a lifetime.

Offered here is a Yelloware Chalkware Belsnickle Santa Claus. Santa S204 was cast using a wonderful highly detailed antique Dutch chocolate mold and is handpainted with my Signature Yelloware finish. The piece is then glazed, antiqued and polished to give it the beautiful appearance of an early Yelloware pottery bowl. The Yelloware Santa displays beautifully with Redware, Spongeware, Salt Glaze Pottery or Mochaware.
This absolutely charming Santa figure, measuring 7 inches, will be signed and dated.
