For me Christmas doesn't end until after the two week Christmas vacation period. It is still the season so a few more posts related to Christmas.
Got this pair of salt and pepper shakers for the above mentioned holiday. They look like elves to me although they could be fairies or some such.
These were made in Japan so likely 1950s or 196s. They have cork stoppers on the bottom.
Displayed with Father Christmas with children in Photo 4.
I wonder if they might be Leprechauns. Found another set on eBay:

These are very neat!! And I really like your display in pic #4.
I'm with you on Christmas lasting as long as possible ha ha. Yep Leprechauns would be a good guess. V sweet.
Thank you very much Efesgirl. A Leprechaun does seem more likely. Could be a sprite.
And thank you very much Scott.

Oh yes. Sprites!
Yes racer4four I think we should go with sprites although it is hard to say exactly what they are.
Thank you
