Gift Focus - Sep/Oct 2018 (Issue 109)

New for the festive season, Enesco presents a number of new items into its White Woodland Collections from Heartwood Creek by Jim Shore. The highlight is the Woodland Santa Statue. At 48cm tall, this impressive piece features Mr Claus with his arms outstretched, holding a piece of bark in his hands. At both sides of the log are small woodland creatures, including a squirrel and two birds, and at his feet are a variety of creatures, with the piece depicting a white rabbit and grey raccoon. Jim’s recognisable design style is evident throughout the collection, with a combination of folk art and quilt designs featuring on the body of Santa’s whimsical robe.
