A representative of Skip is shown in the photo above. We use no molds for our figures. We handsculpt each face, one at a time, which means each face is slightly different and will not look exactly like the face in the photo. This is what makes each handmade doll unique.
Skip comes with a "Folklore of the Nisse" story tag, and a solid pine seat.

Skip is dressed for the holiday season, with his festive colors and Christmas stocking in hand!
Skip's tunic and legs are cotton velveteen. His sleeves are yarn dyed cotton. His hat, which is topped with an organic cotton yarn tassel, is organic cotton fleece. Skip's boots are ultrasuede. A brass key hangs from his ultrasuede belt. He is covered with hand-stitched patches.
Skip holds a small brushed fleece stocking, made from Peruvian organic cotton fabric, and embelished with Swedish cotton trim and glass beads.
Skip's face is bamboo felt. We sew his beard from natural, creamy-white hemp fiber.
His blue eyes are handblown and hand-painted German glass. He is stuffed with a combination of recycled glass pellets and organic cotton stuffing. His arms are wired. Unlike his larger cousins, his head does not turn.
Skip comes with a solid pine seat. He is 9" tall (8" when seated), as measured from the top of his head (not the top of his hat) to the bottom of his boots. (View here the design details for the small nisse, as well as a size comparison to the large nisse)
All of our dolls are 100% vegan.
