Vintage Santa Napkin Holder Mid Century Christmas Vintage Xmas Decor 60s Winking

Charming True Vintage Ceramic Napkin Holder featuring a hand-painted winking Santa. By Holt-Howard, made in Japan, 1960s. Impossible not to fall in love with those big blue eyes, rosy cheeks and nose. Rare! Reasonable offers only, please. SIZE: Just under 4 1/2” H by about 3 1/2” W and 3” D. It is pictured with both standard size napkins (5.5” by ~6.5”) and cocktail napkins (4 3/4” Sq.). CONDITION: Excellent vintage condition overall with some of the expected minor paint wear. I have also indicated in the 6th photo a tiny nib of ceramic on the side noticeable only on very close inspection (manufacturing defect). Holt-Howard was a New York design company known for its whimsical, Mid-Century Modern cartoon-like ceramic ware, 1950s - 1974. — 091225
