S460 German Chalkware Belsnickle Santa

The Artistry

Timeless tradition. The S460 Chalkware Santa serves as a bridge to the past, capturing the authentic, Old World character of German folk art. Standing 8" tall, this figure is hand-cast from an antique German chocolate mold and hand-painted to bring the warmth of a traditional Christmas into your home.

Each figure is hand-painted in our signature Colonial Soft Green—a custom-blended mossy sage tone designed to mimic a centuries-old patina. This artisan chalkware Santa features a hand-painted crown of feather tree sprigs and berries, holding a snowy bottle brush tree. It is a must-have for folk art collectors seeking an heirloom piece that complements primitive and farmhouse holiday decor.

The figure features a crown of hand-painted feather tree sprigs and berries around his hood and coat and a base adorned with a folk art motif. Carrying a snowy bottle brush tree, this Santa bridges the gap between rustic charm and timeless elegance, making it a quintessential piece for any long-term collector.

The exacting craftsmanship and attention to detail ensure a treasure that reflects our historic past and will last for generations to come. Every figure is hand-signed, numbered, and dated on the bottom: Bittersweet House Folk Art, Kathryn Campbell.
