Handmade Krampus Ornament

This mini piece of art is inspired by the story of Krampus-a mythical figure from Central European folklore, particularly in Alpine regions like Austria, Bavaria, Hungary, and the Czech Republic. Krampus is often associated with Christmas and is considered the counterpart to Saint Nicholas or Santa Claus. While Saint Nicholas rewards well-behaved children with gifts, Krampus is known for punishing naughty children during the Christmas season.

He is recognized by his cloven hooves, long tongue, and horns, and is often depicted carrying bells, chains, or a sack. 

This ornament is approximately 3" tall and made using decoupaged prints on pine wood rounds. Art by Hannah Mathis.
