Handcrafted Chalkware Nicholas Driving Holiday Truck #271
Jackie Klunk's Stone Bridge Designs has been creating handcrafted chalkware figures from antique and antique reproduction chocolate moulds since 1988. It is not mass-produced or produced in an assembly line effort. It is handcrafted individually by the artist. The chalkware was chosen by the editors of Better Homes and Gardens Crafts Showcase Magazine for a "Favorite Finds for Holiday Gifts" feature. It has also been featured on the cover of the retailer Country Store of Geneva catalog. It is carried in several fine art stores in the U.S. There are over 550 different chalkware pieces available to order.
This wonderful St. Nick modernized his method of travel by using this gift truck. He wears a red coat and hat with dark cream fur. His "gift truck" sports a large white gift ribbon, and the truck has candy cane front wheel covers with a small snow covered tree on the back.
Each chalkware piece is handcrafted using a special artist chalk recipe, is painted using acrylic paints, and finished with an antiquing glaze, as well as a satin varnish to protect the piece. It is signed and dated, and the bottom is covered with a felt base to protect the base from chipping.
Domestic orders ship for free using USPS parcel ground.
