Description
Whimsical Christmas-themed resin base featuring Santa giving a bath to a moose. Includes detailed elements like a toothbrush cabinet, teddy bear, and reindeer slippers. Includes a wind-up music box mechanism. Note: Glass globe is missing.
Key Features
Highly detailed 360-degree resin scene; nostalgic 90s Christmas aesthetic; functional wind-up music box; great for DIY dioramas.
Authenticity Indicators
Mass-produced seasonal item; no visible maker's mark; high confidence it is a generic retail holiday decoration.
Flaws to Note
MAJOR FLAW: The glass globe is missing. This is essentially a broken item being sold for parts. There may be jagged edges or adhesive residue where the glass originally sat.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace (local), Mercari, or eBay (listed as 'For Parts/Repair')
Selling Tips
Market this to crafters who make 'dry' globes or glitter jars. Test the music box and state which song it plays (e.g., 'We Wish You a Merry Christmas'). Clean dust from crevices with a soft brush before photographing.
