Description
This dancing Mr and Mrs Claus decoration catches the couple in the middle of a festive turn, hands clasped high above their heads and his arm held snugly around her waist. Santa wears his red suit and hat with a sprig of holly at the brim, a broad black belt and black boots, while his flowing white beard brushes her shoulder. Mrs Claus has her grey hair swept up into a neat bun and wears a long red dress that swirls out at the hem. Every cuff, collar and hem is edged with a textured white trim that looks like soft fur. It stands 25.7cm tall, 22cm wide and 12.5cm deep, so it has presence without crowding a shelf.
Red is the colour of the season, and this piece brings it to a mantelpiece, a hall table, a windowsill or the centre of a sideboard where family gather. Its size suits a spot at eye level, where the faces and the little details can be enjoyed up close. It is a cheerful Christmas decoration for a living room or a dining room, and it makes a warm Christmas gift for anyone who loves to bring the festive boxes down from the loft each December.
The couple are finished all the way round, so the back is just as carefully detailed as the front, with his belt, her dress and the trim carried through. That means it can sit in the open, or in a window where it is seen from both sides. The figure stands on its own, resting on his boots and the sweep of her dress, with no stand or hook needed. Between seasons, dust it with a soft dry cloth and wrap it in tissue before boxing it away. Place it beside a sprig of greenery or a small stack of wrapped presents and the scene is set for the season.
