I’ll be on holiday December 21 through January 4. Thank you for your interest. Natural aging cracks in solid wood. An amazing work of carving from a solid piece of mahogany. This primitive hand carved Santa is an original one-of-a-kind piece from the 1980s. Detailed carving in his face and beard, coat and boots. He carries a toy and a teddy with big pockets that probably hold more treats.
