Silken Krampus

Krampus figure / fine wire brush / Germany / c. 1930s

Description

A rare pre-war vintage Christmas ornament or a devilish stocking stuffer, this horned figure represents the Krampus, the fearsome Yuletide figure in Central and Easter European folklore who punishes naughty children with birch rods.

The scarlet body of this Krampus is made from plush wire brush, with a long, louche tapering tail. Ready to embark on his Christmas terrors, the beast wields birch splinters in hand.
