History: A whimsical ceramic elf figurine dressed in a vibrant red suit, resting playfully on a ceramic "wood" base. Hand-painted facial features and high-gloss glaze suggest mid-century mass production, typical of Japanese export or German novelty wares. With its impish charm and post-war nostalgia, this little fellow would have graced mantels or Christmas shelves with glee. A delightful piece for collectors of vintage holiday or kitsch figurines.
 
Flaws: Some ware and tear on the paint
