Our Snowman Santa and is a masterpiece of texture. His long, fur-trimmed hooded coat cascades to the ground, and his suede sash enhances his rugged look. With a cluster of pine branches in his left hand, and a green sack with snowshoes slung over his right shoulder, our Santa is rich in detail. Tiny woodland creatures peak out from beneath his long coat, beautifully decorated from every angle.
Each Santa is approximately 8 inches tall and entirely made by hand, starting from the original sculpting of the figure, to the hand-casting, hand-painting, and hand-dressing. Our Santa is made using the finest materials and textural embellishments available, making each one a unique and cherished heirloom.

How to Make a Great Cup of Tea
In order to have a great cup of
tea you need to have the following steps at a high level of excellence. If any of these steps are not excellent, then
you will end up with an OK cup of tea or maybe even a lousy cup of tea: -
Use only great tea. There is a
lot of bad tea out there in the world and very little great tea.
- Use great water free of
chlorine or sulfur.
- Use a great filter
system such as our Finum Permanent Filter Basket or our Victoria Tea Strainer.
- Use the correct water temperature. Never microwave the water.
- Time your tea accurately.
Brewing Basics
- Bring fresh filtered water to a
full boil for black teas, herbals and some oolongs. Use less than boiling water
for whites, greens, and some oolongs.
-
Using a teaspoon, measure one level teaspoon of loose tea for each 6 ounce
cup desired.
-
Pour prepared water over tea, steep
according to the brewing instructions below, and enjoy!
