Santa Claus hovers above a forest scene as a star shines above. Perhaps he can fly? Handmade from wood with a wire ring and hand painted by artisans of the Graupner Workshop in Crottendorf, in the heart of Germany's Erzgebirge Mountains. The workshop, noted for their bold use of color, is run by Kordula & Ronald Graupner and their 15 employees. This ornament is just about 3 1/4" tall x 2 3/4" wide x 1/2" deep, with a cord for hanging.
