Santa Claus made from 100% cotton that is red dyed. He has stockings that are black cotton and toes that show in the spun cotton black stockings! This Santa is in good condition, considering his age. He has little wear. Santa Claus has either a pocket that is opened or a bag with a sash. What do you think is in there!?! His left arm is a little worn. The sash attached to the pocket or bag is faded. Santa has a porcelain or bisque face with great detail, of which dates him back to 1850 to 1870. His beard and mustache are cotton. The trim on his robe is cotton white. His black leather belt is with splotches of what looks to be white paint around the belt. Santa‘s body under his robe is cotton and is in RED. Santa Claus has original hanging string at tip of hat and Red in color. His mustache is A HANDLEBAR MUSTACHE and is very bushy and long, almost to the point of reaching the bottom of Santa‘s Beard! See photos. Santa‘s face is porcelain or bisque with wonderful details. The reindeer, if you look at the underneath at the tummies, you will see string which draws me to the conclusion that the reindeer are made from cotton, but you need to be the judge. I am guessing the age range for this lovely set is between 1870 and 1930. If the reindeer are cotton, that would bring the sleigh and reindeer to the same era as Santa Claus, to the 1800s. Study over photos. They should help to determine what they are made of. 14 day return only if damage during transit but not with buyers remorse..
