🎄 HAND-PAINTED BELSNICKEL CHRISTMAS BOTTLES | SET OF 3 🎄

This one-of-a-kind set of three decorative bottles was created using the wonderful IOD Belsnickel Mould, then individually hand-painted by Gray Day Relics to bring every tiny detail to life.

🌲 Father Christmas with his evergreen tree — dressed in traditional Christmas red with tall black boots.

🏮 The lantern bearer — perhaps my favorite! Dressed in a beautiful deep midnight blue coat embellished with greenery, carrying his lantern and Christmas sack.

🔔 The bell keeper — dressed in warm old-world gold and muted red, holding his golden bell and looking every bit like he stepped out of a European Christmas storybook.

Look closely and you’ll see the details that make the IOD Belsnickel Mould so special — textured beards, patterned coats, tiny buckles, boots, evergreen branches, lantern, bell and tree. Each has been individually painted, shaded and aged rather than simply painted in solid colors.

The Belsnickels are mounted on 10” x 2” glass bottles, finished in a warm creamy neutral and wrapped at the neck with rustic jute.

Together they have the wonderful look of old European Christmas folk art — nostalgic, slightly primitive and wonderfully imperfect, as though they’ve been part of someone’s Christmas collection for years.
