Nordic Skier Santa Clause Figurine

This is a decorative Christmas figurine depicting Santa Claus as a Nordic skier or mountain man. Standing approximately 12 to 15 inches tall, the figure is elaborately dressed in a heavy coat and hat made of multi-toned faux fur in shades of tan, cream, and brown. The face is hand-painted with realistic features, including glass-like eyes and a long, curly white beard made of wool or high-quality synthetic fibers. Santa holds two wooden ski poles with leather wrist straps and plastic baskets, while his feet are positioned on miniature wooden snowshoes with cross-hatched cord detailing. On his back, he carries a bundle of greenery, pinecones, and twigs, adding to the rustic, outdoor theme. The craftsmanship suggests a high-end contemporary collectible, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century. The condition appears excellent with no visible shedding of the fur or damage to the wooden components. The materials appear to be a mix of resin (for the face), faux fur, real wood, and various textiles, showcasing significant detail in the layering of textures and colors.
