VTG RARE SANTA CLAUS Chalkware Decor 14.5" LOG Small Xmas Tree Stand? Cabin Deco

OMG. I couldn't believe it when I found this! it's 14 and a half inches from the floor to the top it's about 11 to 12 in in diameter.. if you look at the top you can see the circular rings which means that this is supposed to be a tree stump that was carved to be Santa.. it's been around a bit! Of course Santa's been around since the late 19th century.. I'd imagine this is from the early mid-century. Not sure. It's not signed. I can't find another one like it. I love it. If you know anything about this or have seen one like it please let me know! If you have a good home for him that would be great too! What makes me think it's an earlier version of Santa is the color of his coat trim and beard.. the black and red came later the white beard came later so maybe even? This could be from the 80's? Not sure. Please feel free to make a reasonable offer if you like.
