Father Christmas – JP3109

Description

Full of detail, yet charmingly simple, this Bavarian inspired Christmas box is designed to hold ornaments or other holiday surprises.  I used mine to hold a chalkware Santa figure cast from an antique chocolate mold but am designing another for ornaments.

We once again have exceptional, high quality Shaker Style Bentwood Boxes.  These Oval Museum Bride’s boxes are beautifully made of solid birch and are lighter in weight than other Bentwood boxes that have been available in the past.

The bundle includes the tall oval “museum” box that measures 11 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ and is about 6″ tall.
