Scanda Klaus Scandinavian Santa Ornament with Original Box

This item is a detailed resin holiday ornament featuring 'Scanda Klaus,' a folk-style Scandinavian Santa figure. The character is depicted in traditional Nordic winter attire, including a red knitted cap, a blue patterned vest with yellow embroidery details, red mittens with snowflake motifs, and grey trousers tucked into fur-trimmed boots with curled toes. He holds a pair of light-colored wooden-textured skis over his shoulder and carries a small blue sack filled with colorful gifts. The ornament stands approximately 3 to 4 inches tall and is crafted from a molded cold-cast resin or polymer material, finished with hand-painted matte pigments. A gold metallic hanging cord is attached to a small eyelet at the crown of the figure's head. The sculpture shows high-quality craftsmanship, particularly in the textural rendering of the beard, fur trim, and knitted fabric surfaces. The item includes its original rectangular cardboard box featuring a photographic print of the ornament against a pine tree background and the 'Scanda Klaus ornament' branding in a blue and red label style. The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, paint loss, or repairs. The style suggests a late 20th-century manufacture, likely from the 1980s or 1990s, during the peak of collectible holiday figurines produced for global markets.
