Flocked & Painted Chalkware

MarbelloArtcraft

Up for sale is a vintage flocked and painted chalkware Sleeping Santa Claus Bank. The Santa Claus figure has his hands clasped together, andis sitting and sleeping in a large stuffed chair. The chair is green flocked,andSanta\'s white hair, beard, gloves, cuffs, trim (andeverything else that is white) is also flocked. The red, black and pink face are all hand painted, and havea glossy finish. The entire piece stands approximately7 inches tall, and it\'s width, at the widest point, measures approximately5.5inches across. I believe that the piece was created by Marbello Artcraft, in 1948.

TheSantaClaus Bankis ingreat vintage condition. However, there are several small chips, the largest of which is to the curved arm of the chair. In addition, there are some small chips to the paint (most noticeable to the black boots), and a few areas where the flocked has been rubbed. I have attempted to document these imperfections in the final four photographs.
