A Costanza Father Christmas Santa Figurine Sitting Yellow Robe Silvestri CRP

Vtg Silvestri Corp Anthony Costanza Santa Carved Old  World Christmas Resin Figurine.  All originals are done by the artist and like this one reproduced in resin.  Each is carved individually, one at a time, by me. My wood of choice is cedar, but I'll also use wood that I find and appeals to me...oak, cherry, apple, black walnut, and others. Cracks and knotholes natural to the wood are always incorporated into the finished carving.  I use wood chisels, X-acto knives, hammers and larger molding chisels for oak and other hardwood pieces. When I'm satisfied with my carving, I sand, I hand paint, and I finish the piece. If I feel a holiday carving needs a snowy, icy glow, I'll use either antique mica or imported German glass glitter to finish the carving. I've also used vintage German lametta tinsel to highlight a Santa's cloak.
