19th Century wood Santos of a boy/child with glass eyes and articulated arms.

About the Item

This charming piece has been in my collection for over 40 years. The articulated arms and glass eyes contribute to its charm and personality. I have always felt it signified a sense of peace, love and empathy. Although it is in somewhat of a distressed condition, for me it only contributes to its antiquity and attractiveness. I hope these same qualities are felt and appreciated by its next owner.
