Vintage Santa Claus flower holder with its original Noel Decorations Japan label brings nostalgic charm to a collected Christmas display.

This mid-century ceramic Santa features a bright red suit, rosy cheeks, green mittens, and gold accents.

His expressive face and sculpted white beard give this small holiday piece a delightful presence. An open holder at the back accommodates a few faux stems, making him a charming accent for a mantel, bookshelf, or vintage Christmas vignette. The original green-and-gold paper label remains attached underneath.

Approximate Age:
Circa 1950s–1960s, estimated from the styling, cold-painted decoration, and original Japan label.

Measurements:
Approximately 5½ inches tall × 3¼ inches long × 1½ inches wide.

Condition:
Displays age-related wear, including scattered loss to the original cold-painted decoration, particularly on the black boots and gold accents, with smaller losses elsewhere. Glaze crazing is visible throughout, with some darkening along the craze lines and light surface discoloration. The flower-holder opening has a small localized bruise on the rim, visible as an oval impact mark with darkened edges in the close-up photograph. No other chips or body cracks were noted. The underside shows shelf wear, and the original Noel Decorations Japan sticker remains attached. Please review all photos carefully as they are considered part of the description.
