Royal Copenhagen Santa of the Year 2017 with gift sack and dog

Royal Copenhagen Santa of the Year 2017 is a charming Christmas figurine that gathers the classic Christmas story in one motif. Santa stands in his red suit with white trim, raised hand and the calm, friendly expression that makes the figure recognizable and atmospheric in December. At his foot sits a small dog looking up, while the gift sack over his shoulder is filled with toys and small animals, which emphasize the story of joy, gifts and anticipation leading up to Christmas.

The figure is designed by Sven Vestergaard for Royal Copenhagen and belongs to the sought-after Santa of the Year series. The series starts in 2001, and since then a new Santa has been produced every year, which has made the figures a regular collecting area for many. From 2021 onwards, a Mrs. Santa has also been added to the collection, so the series has gained yet another dimension for collectors and Christmas enthusiasts. This is precisely what helps make these Royal Copenhagen Christmas figures very popular and in high demand.

On the 2017 figure, several fine details can be seen, which bring the motif to life. In the sack, among other things, you can spot a teddy bear and a small gray mouse, and on Santa's red cape there is also a small white figure that resembles a soft stuffed animal. Together with the dog by his side, this creates a warm and playful expression that fits beautifully into the Christmas decorations, on a shelf, in a display cabinet or as part of a larger collection of Christmas figures from Royal Copenhagen.

Santa of the Year 2017 works beautifully on its own, but it is also ideal for those who collect the series and wish to expand or complete the row year by year. As a porcelain figurine, it combines tradition, collecting joy and Danish design history in a format that returns every Christmas and creates familiarity in the home.
