Richard and Shelie McCall began making Santa dolls in 1989 to give as gifts to their friends and thus began the art and passion that today is Stone Soup Santas. Creating these magnificent Santa dolls from their home on Mt. Tamalpais in Marin County California, the McCalls sell nationwide to individuals, gift galleries, doll shops and boutiques.
Richard creates the forms: sturdy, freestanding wood-and-metal armatures and Shelie sculpts Santa\'s polymer-clay head, hands and face. She also creates the costumes with fabrics that have a vintage feel.The plush animals they use are made by HANSA - one of the finest in the plush animal industry!BUSTER WAS PREVIOUSLY DISPLAYED IN A BOUTIQUE IN NO. CALIFORNIA,
AND I PURCHASED HIM WHEN THIS SHOP WAS CLOSING.
VERY FEW OF THE STONE SOUP SANTA\'S ARE WITHOUT BEARDS...AND BUSTER HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THOSE!!
HE IS DRESSED IN A SUEDE LAVENDER UNDER COAT,
MATCHING SUEDE POINTED & OVERSTUFFED ELF HAT,
LAVENDER GINGHAM PANTS &
MINT GREEN SUEDE VESTWITH GROSSGRAIN RIBBON LACING.HIS BOOTS ARE OFF WHITE SUEDE, ALSO TIED WITHGROSSGRAINRIBBON.
HE HAS A LARGE BASKET OF FLOWERS ON HIS BACK, AND IS HOLDING SUEDE RIEGNS TO RIDE ATOP THE BACK OF HIS LARGE BROWN RABBIT!
HE HAS HIS HANG TAG WITH HIS NAME & YEAR NOTED ON BACK SIDEHE IS ALSO SIGNED & DATED BY THE ARTIST ON THE BOTTOM OF HIS LEFT BOOT.
NOTE: STONE SOUP SANTAS DO NOT COME WITH CERTIFICATES OF AUTHENTICITY
OR NUMBERED CERTIFICATES, AS EACH IS A ONE OF A KIND CREATION
& NOT PART OF A NUMBERED LIMITED EDITION.NO TWO ARE EVER ALIKE!!
THEY ALSO DO NOT HAVE COMMERCIALLY PROCESSED BOXES.
THESE SANTAS ARE HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER BY COLLECTORS,
