Artifact Overview
In the 1870s, the first mass-produced Christmas ornaments became a popular way to personalize holiday decor. In the 21st century, manufacturers create intricate ornaments that reference broader culture. Old World Christmas made this Santa in response to the Covid-19 pandemic of the early-2020s; Santa Claus is depicted following health guidelines outlined by the Center for Disease Control at that time.
