Fabric Santa Claus in Cloak Decoration 46cm - Red & White

This fabric Santa Claus decoration shows Father Christmas in a long red cloak, ready to take his place in the house for the festive weeks. He stands 46cm tall in red and white, with a fleecy red cloak edged in fluffy white trim, a matching hat finished with a white pom-pom and a full, flowing white beard. Under the cloak he wears a red and white knitted-look jumper with a snowflake pattern, a black belt with a gold buckle, red trousers and dark boots. Over one shoulder he carries a sack topped with candy canes and a wrapped parcel, and in his other hand he holds a striped present tied with red ribbon.

He suits a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a hallway table or a deep windowsill, and looks just as cheerful beside the tree or at the centre of a festive table. His red and white colouring sits happily with traditional decorations and with candy cane stripes alike, so he works in a classic scheme or a brighter, more playful one. At 46cm he has real presence without crowding a shelf, and he stands on his own boots, so he needs no hook or wall space. He makes a warm Christmas gift too, for anyone who loves bringing out a favourite figure every December.

Porcelain and plastic go into his make, and his clothes are fabric, which gives him a cosy, homely look. As a dressed figure, he is a decoration for display rather than a toy. Care is simple: dust him with a soft dry cloth, keep him away from damp, and fluff his beard and trim gently with your fingers if they flatten in storage. When the season ends, wrap him in tissue and keep him upright in a box somewhere cool and dry, ready for the following Christmas. We like him among greenery and fairy lights by the tree.
