Victorian Santa: Jill Zaperach

 
 
Covering his taupe colored gown is a very rich brown velvet robe trimmed in mink fur. The sleeves and hat are trimmed with sheepskin. A beautifully colored strand of garland drapes over his shoulders and hands. From his left arm hangs a heart-shaped bag filled with potpourri. Atop his right arm sits a porcelain angel.

Purchased in 2002 (first Santa purchased from Jill Zaperach).
