Santa Clause or Daddaí Na Nollaig in Irish
.. is associated with a broad range of Christmas traditions and decorations, from dolls and figurines to snowglobes, chocolate molds, dinnerware, Christmas tree ornaments, assorted paper and even Coca-Cola Christmas items. Companies like Waterford and Woolco mass-produced Santa figurines for decades. Many other Santa decorations are unique works of folk art that have been hand-crafted from wood, glass, paper mache and other materials. Of course with the globalization of commercial markets many different variations to Santa’s image have evolved and are available to consumers to help personalize thier own Christmas experience.

The Irish Christmas Santa carries a very special Christmas sign reminiscent of the beautiful old ironwork signs that prevail in Ireland which reads "Nollaig Shona Duit" and means "Happy Christmas Day"' the most common Christmas greeting. A cape to ward off blustery Irish winds keeps warm as does his cable knit Irish sweater. In Santa's sack we find some Irish goodies; lucky coins fishing boat a large shamrock jar of orange marmalade book of Irish proverbs and a sheep rocker. Santa stands before Irish stone fences which are prevalent all around the countryside. This jolly Irish man with a twinkle in his eyes will make sure that everyone has a "Nollaig Sona Duit.". 6.25" Height.
