A splendid, large-format and complex piece, both fantastic and realistic: the reindeer are modelled and sculpted like real animals, and they seem to leap and run over the clouds. Highlights include the minutest of details such as the antlers of the reindeer or their legs, the skates of the sled, the small toys, or even the small leather pompom on Santa Claus' hat. His facial expression is happy and smiling. Worth noting is the decoration of the sides of the sleigh, where the mistletoe motifs on a dark brown and green background have been reflected with red beads. 14 1/4" in height.
