This Royal Albert Santa does both, emerging from a crimson ornament globe whose star-shaped openings let candlelight flicker through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2009 as part of the \u003cem\u003eChristmas Gifts\u003c\/em\u003e series, the sculpted scene is packed with detail — green mittens, a toy-filled holiday sack, a decorated Christmas tree, a wicker-style birdhouse and a small red cardinal beside Santa’s shoulder. Purple presents and a textured snowy base complete the scene. Perfect for a festive mantelpiece or a Christmas sideboard, it also makes a charming companion to the matching Santa’s Candy Bowl from the same collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rear opening accommodates a standard tealight in a metal or clear cup, or an LED equivalent, allowing the glossy crimson globe to become a small seasonal luminary. Manufactured in China to Royal Albert’s specifications and now retired, this example bears the crown crest and ©2009 Royal Albert Ltd mark on its base.
