The Holly and Ivy Statement Santa by Judi

The Holly and Ivy Statement Santa by Judi is a remarkable celebration of tradition, artistry, and storytelling, brought to life through one of Judi Vaillancourt’s cherished antique chocolate moulds. This large-scale, statement piece reflects over two years of thoughtful design, much of it inspired during quiet winter nights, resulting in a figure rich with depth and character. Cloaked in a deep green robe intricately adorned with hand-painted holly and ivy, each leaf and cluster of red berries is rendered with extraordinary precision, creating a sense of movement and life across every surface. From every angle, new details emerge—from the softly textured fur trim and vibrant red satchel to the finely sculpted expression and the delicate tree held at his side—inviting collectors to experience the piece in the round. This Santa stands as a testament to Judi’s enduring commitment to craftsmanship and her ability to transform historical inspiration into a timeless work of fine art, destined to become a centerpiece in any collection and a tradition for generations to come.
