Vintage Christmas Putz Paper Mache Elf Gnome Candy Container Ornament Sealed 4"

Small paper mache figure of an elf or gnome, coated overall in pink paint with dense mica glitter. Tall pointed conical hat, rounded body with stub arms and a center button, and a flared base. The head is securely sealed at the neckline with original factory glue residue visible. It was never designed to be taken apart. The tiny holiday candies or sugar pellets placed inside during assembly are still trapped inside the hollow body, rattling cleanly when the figurine is shaken. Includes the original wire ornament loop integrated into the peak of the hat. Condition: Excellent vintage condition with minimal age wear. The face paint remains bright with rosy cheeks, and the mica coating has exceptional coverage with very little thinning or shedding. No major cracks, crushed spots, or repairs.
