Traditional Large Red Belsnickle
by Bethany Lowe

• From the Bethany Lowe Heirloom collection.

This Traditional Large Red Belsnickle stands on a snow mound in traditional German fashion. He is so lightweight and glittery! His size makes him a standout piece that is perfect to anchor a display of Santa figures surrounded by bottle brush trees. He looks like a traditional Belsnickle made of German chalkware, but instead he is made of paper mache. Paper mache is a very creative process which results in such special pieces that it makes us appreciate the skill it took to make them. He is painted in a rich red  color with a green band around the bottom of the coat and is dusted with mica and glitter. The band around the Santa hat is brown flocking. He carries bottle brush sprigs that are tipped in red beads, because Santa always has a gift to give.
