BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! A Trio of Paradise Galleries Treasury Collection Porcelain Christmas Dolls
A trio of handcrafted porcelain dolls from the Paradise Galleries Treasury Collection, part of the series titled ‘Twas The Night Before Christmas as designed by artist Patricia Rose. The group consists of figures representing Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, and an Elf. Each figure is constructed with a porcelain head, hands, and feet on a fabric-clothed body.
The Santa Claus figure is depicted as a toymaker wearing a red shirt, brown trousers, and a dark green apron with a functional pocket containing small tools and a removable hammer accessory. Accompanying Santa is a paper scroll list titled Naughty or Nice. Mrs. Claus is dressed in a red striped gown with a white lace-trimmed apron and a matching lace cap. This figure is accompanied by a small, painted resin gingerbread house accessory. The Elf figure is dressed in green and red knit clothing with a brown vest and pointed shoes featuring bell accents.
The lot includes three white metal display stands, two original pink polka-dot Treasury Collection boxes, two promotional brochures, and a Certificate of Authenticity for the Elf doll, numbered D505. Documentation indicates the items were manufactured in Thailand.
Mrs. Claus: 15 inches tall
Elf: 7 inches tall.
