Vintage ceramic Santa Christmas collectibles offered individually: choose a Santa head planter, winking Santa pitcher, or dated 1960 Holt Howard mug.

Expressive faces, sculpted white beards, and cheerful red accents bring nostalgic charm to a vintage Christmas display.

This listing is for ONE item. Please select Choice A, Choice B, or Choice C from the variation menu. Each choice is priced separately.

Choice A — Santa Head Planter
A broad Santa face with softly blushed cheeks, painted black eyes, a curled white beard, and a red cap draped to one side. His small red mouth and gently raised eyebrows give this piece a particularly expressive face. A charming focal point for a Christmas shelf or seasonal arrangement.

Choice B — Winking Santa Pitcher
A sculptural Santa pitcher featuring one winking eye, rosy cheeks, sweeping white eyebrows, and a deeply molded beard. The elongated red cap curves into the handle, with a white pompom at its lower end. A pouring spout completes this distinctive holiday form. This piece is unmarked; no maker is attributed.

Choice C — 1960 Holt Howard Santa Mug
A small winking Santa mug identified by its Holt Howard mark and 1960 date. The playful face features a colorful open eye, rosy cheeks, a smiling red mouth, and a curled white mustache. A red rim and curved handle complete the design. Substantial loss to the original cold-painted decoration gives this example a visibly timeworn appearance.
