Grandfather Christmas is made from a technique called needle felting, which involves poking and prodding different colours of wool with a extremely sharp barbed needle until you reach the perfect shape. It literally takes thousands of pokes to reach just the right sculpture.

This soft sculpture has such an intelligence and wisdom in his eyes that I decided he had to be called Grandfather Christmas. Also because he is one of the largest sculptures that I have made and towers over most of the other Santas.

Even though Grandfather Christmas hardly weighs a thing, he is approx. 29 cm (11.5 inches) tall. He is cute to look at, and he comes from a smoke free home, but he is not a children's toy.

Grandfather Christmas is the most beautiful soft pink that I hand dyed myself to get just the right shade. His beard and details on his coat are a creamy white colour and the trim on his cloak and hat is a nice bright white. His boots, mittens and staff are a light mixed grey colour. Remember different monitors may show colours slightly different then they actually are, but trust me, I've worked very hard in picking out just the right colours to bring these sculptures to life!

Listing is for felted Grandfather Christmas only. Other display items are not included.
