Santons, Exclusive French Imported Collectibles, are the ultimate gift for yourself or that special someone.  Not only are they beautiful, but bring to life a special bygone age that endures thanks to the superb craftsmanship of master santon makers. All the magic, tradition and history of Provence come to life in each one of these individually hand-crafted santons. They blend with and enhance any decor.  Each has its own story that can be seen in the faces and dress of each unique piece. Their beauty and value can only grow.  Simply Treasures imports these santons directly from France. They are made by Rose Gelato -- one of France's finest and most highly decorated santon-makers.  For 3 generations, the Gelato family has been adhering to the strict guidelines which govern what may truly be called an authentic santon of Provence. These exceptional santons are some of the best France has to offer and are simply something special. We take great pride in being their exclusive North American distributor, but also being able to call them friends.

We are also pleased to announce the addition of a beautiful new line of 7-centimeter handpainted santons from the workshops of Renée Gateau in Marseille.  Another distinguished santonmaker, Gateau specializes in only the 7-centimeter size.  It truly is a beautiful collection and we are very proud to bring it to you.

As each Santon is individually hand-crafted, each one is unique in itself.  No two Santons will ever be alike.   Your santon is an individual masterpiece from one of France's most respected and decorated santon makers.   Fabric colors and accessories may vary. Specific colors may be requested for a surcharge of $15.00. Special order items will take 4-6 weeks for delivery.   In-stock items will ship out within 48 hours.

In addition to our santons, we also bring you other hand-crafted items from Provence such as fine table linens made out of traditional Provençal fabric, exquisite trompe-l'œil ceramics by Figuères, artisanal and authentic perfumed Marseille Soaps, and many other unique gift ideas.  We pride ourselves on trying to constantly add to our offerings.
