Vtg Japan Figural Christmas Ceramic Santa Boot Bank Spaghetti Gold Gilt Trim
Item History & Price
This offering is for a vintage Christmas holiday figural Santa Claus Boot Still Bank. It is made of ceramic, most likely hand painted, original sticker on bottom which reads "Imported Made in Japan, Santa Claus Programs". It is a red boot with white around the top cuff, and spaghetti trim, which has been brushed lightly with gold gilt. The sole of the boot is also gold gilt, and there a cluster of holly leaves and berries atop of the toe. There is very ...minimal loss of decoration, no visible scratches, possibly a bit of the spaghetti trim chipped along the top (hard to tell if it is actually chipped, or if tht is how it was made). Opening in top to insert money. Does not have stopper. Measures just under 5" tall, about 5 1/2" front to back of boot, and 3 1/2 " across the top. Cute savings bank for the holidays!
