This is a Santa in a very archaic style just as the designs of the fist quarter of the 20th century. Painting with a bristle brush gives his rustic character. The patina applied after painting reinforces this impression.
Founded in 1900, Richard Mahr of Steinach, Germany created the finely detailed papier-mâché figurines that have since become internationally known and collected. Marolin figurines are hand composed using a combination of kaolin, chalk, paper fibers, organic paste, and clay before being hand poured and painted. These figurines, not unlike Vaillancourt’s Chalkware, are known for their artistic quality and detail.
