Artoria Lynn Haney Santa "Soldier" Limoges Box

This beautiful Limoges box was designed by Lynn Haney, a well known artist famous for designing collectible Santa dolls. In this case, he has designed a Santa reminiscent of Victorian times, wearing a dark, almost burgundy coat with curly swirls of gold around the edges and up the back of the coat. Santa has a sack of toys on his back and a tree in his left hand. There are three toy soldiers - looks like some little child was very good this year! Santa's beard is as white as the snow he is walking through and ir ripples almost down to his waist. The clasp is a toy bear and there is a toy drum painted inside. The box is marked Artoria Peint Main, Limoges France and is signed and numbered by the artist. It measures 2¾"h x 2"w.
