Vintage Resin Santa Riding a Reindeer Figurine Ornament

This decorative Christmas ornament features a detailed scene of a traditional Santa Claus figure riding atop a seated reindeer. The item is constructed from a molded resin or cold-cast ceramic material, expertly painted with a matte finish. Santa is depicted in a hooded red robe with white trim, holding a small basket containing various toys, including a miniature panda bear and a doll. The reindeer is finished in shades of dark brown and tan, featuring light-colored antlers that integrate a metallic gold-tone hanging loop. A thin gold cord is attached for display. The piece displays a high level of texture, particularly in the fur of Santa's beard and the deer's coat. Regarding condition, there is significant visible damage: the reindeer's front left leg is broken and missing from the knee down, and the Santa figure appears to have been crudely reattached or repaired with visible adhesive residue near the base. The style suggests a late 20th-century mass-produced collectible, likely from the 1980s or 1990s, mimicking the aesthetic of hand-carved folk art pieces.
