A Lenox Christmas collectible. Santa makes a visit to your home this year in the form of a fine china ornament. Both his robe and the lantern he holds are intricately pierced. And the lantern bears the year of issue in 24 karat gold.The release of Lenox’s annual Santa ornament is a celebrated occasion for collectors. This 2006 Santa embodies the image of a true old-fashioned Saint Nicholas, wearing a serious expression, long robes, and carrying a small tree and bag of toys. Raised high in his other hand is a lantern, inscribed with the year of issue, 2006. Sculpted of ivory fine china, the Santa ornament is glazed a glossy ivory all over, and is trimmed with gleaming 24-carat gold. Gold dust adds sparkle to the figure’s cuffs and hat brim, and his robe edge and lantern show delicate pierced openwork. Measuring 3-3/4 inches in height, the 2006 Santa can stand alone on a mantel or coffee table, or dangle from a Christmas tree by means of the attached gold tassel cord. The limited edition, gift-boxed ornament will be produced only during 2006. –Ann Bieri
