What a great carving! It's a little out of my price range (unless you have a credit card I can borrow). Thanks for posting the link.

I have seen this carving in a book (or at least a version of it). It is a work of art. Not overly done but VERY effective.

I'd have to sell about 350 Santas to be able to afford this wonderful piece.
Anybody want to go halvsies with me?

Now that's very cool!!! Maybe someday I'll get to that point, but not for a long time.

What a carving. He is one of my favorite carvers. Especially the ones where a man is playing the fiddle, and his missus is dancing. He was great.
