Wine Merchant Bacchus-Themed Father Christmas Figurine

This is a detailed, multi-media decorative figurine of Santa Claus, designed with a distinct 'Old World' or 'Bacchus' wine motif. The figure stands approximately 12 to 15 inches tall and is constructed using a variety of materials including resin or polymer clay for the hands and face, synthetic fiber for the long white beard, and a beige, curly wool-like fabric for the heavy robe and hood. The face is hand-painted with realistic features, including blue eyes and white-painted eyebrows. He is heavily adorned with naturalistic accessories: a grapevine wreath with berries circles his hood, and he carries a tall staff topped with a red cardinal. Multiple clusters of artificial grapes in purple, green, and bronze hues drape across his body and staff. He holds a small, clear wine bottle in his left hand, while a burlap sack on his back is filled with pinecones, evergreen sprigs, and twigs. The base is circular and wood-toned, decorated with small pinecones, moss, and more grapes. No specific maker's mark is visible from this angle, but the craftsmanship reflects the style of high-end holiday collectibles from the late 20th to early 21st century, such as those by Karen Didion or Pipka. The condition appears to be very good with no visible chips or broken limbs; however, there is some minor fraying on the burlap and some displacement of the synthetic beard hair, typical for stored seasonal items.
