Nikolas Flakius

The Nikolas Flakius Story
Nikolas Flakius appears in the woods where the snow fairies play,
arriving each December in a snowflake filled sleigh,
with a coat and procession that are a spectacular array.
As soon as he lands the fairies greet him in song and balletic sashays,
scooping armfuls of flakes from his gloriously overflowing sleigh,
and when the carriage is empty, they all fly away.
From the eve of winter solstice until the Twelfth Day,
the fairies sprinkle snowflakes onto the sleeping noses,
of the young and the old as everyone dozes.
Folks with tall plans and wishes,
who believe in the miracles of the night before Christmas,
will receive in their lifetime at least one visit.
Nikolas Flakius is a 6.5-inch Santa dressed in a creamy white suit covered with candy-red stripes, glittering green holly leaves and tiny red berries. He carries a jewel-trimmed Christmas tree in one hand and an oversized gleaming gold sack filled with miniature presents in the other. Czech crystals, iridescent snowy trim and a crystal-centered gold belt buckle add dimension throughout. Mouth blown, hand painted, glittered and sterling silver lined in Poland, this JingleNog ornament is individually handcrafted rather than mass produced.
MATERIAL: Glass Paint Glitter Stones
INCLUDES: 1 Handmade, European Glass Ornament
Give Nikolas Flakius a prominent branch where his Christmas tree, patterned suit and overflowing gold sack can be seen from several angles. At 6.5 inches, he also works well as a focal ornament among a collection of Santas or other handcrafted European glass ornaments.
There is something to discover from every angle: dimensional holly berries, a crystal-centered belt buckle, jewel-like ornaments on Santa’s tree and tiny presents tucked inside his gold sack. Even his bright blue eyes, curled mustache, rosy cheeks and sculpted beard have been carefully detailed.
The red, white, green and gold palette makes Nikolas easy to work into traditional Christmas decorating. Let him anchor a Santa grouping, place him among red and gold ornaments, or surround him with holly-inspired pieces that pick up the glittering leaves and berries covering his suit.
