Hailing from the Provence region of France, Santons (meaning "little saints") began as traditional Christmas crèche figures but evolved into a celebrated year-round art form representing regional working-class characters. Created by the renowned workshop of Yolande, these larger-scale folk art figures are highly collectible for their accurate depictions of historic French country costumes, hand-sewn lace work, and intricately patterned provincial textiles.
