hand-carved, painted basswood christmas shelf sitters with long dangling legs — snowmen, santa, reindeer and a zebra in a santa hat. holiday decor for a shelf edge or mantel.
hand-carved basswood animals with legs far too long for them, dressed for december. they sit on the edge of a shelf and let their feet hang.
a snowman, a snowman in striped trousers, a grey one, santa in the same trousers, two reindeer, and a zebra who has been given a hat. carved and painted one at a time, so the grain, the small pits and the way the paint sat all come with the animal.
material: carved basswood, painted and lacquered
size: seated height — snowman 3.9 in / 9.9 cm / santa 4.1 in / 10.4 cm / snowman in stripes 4.1 in / 10.4 cm / reindeer in a green scarf 4.1 in / 10.4 cm / grey snowman 4.3 in / 10.9 cm / reindeer 4.7 in / 11.9 cm / zebra in a santa hat 4.7 in / 11.9 cm
scale: roughly 1:10 to 1:15, close enough to sit on a shelf edge in a 1:12 room
colors: painted to match
for: shelf edges, a mantel, the lip of a desk in december
heads up: carved from solid wood by hand, so yours will not match the photo exactly — small pits, seams, knots and colour shifts are in the wood, not faults. the legs are thin and will snap if you drop it. display only, not chew-safe.
good for: a christmas gift for someone with a mantel or a shelf · secret santa · a coworker's desk in december
no instructions included. the zebra already knows the hat is not his.
