The kneeling Minuteman in his Santa cap — the same sentinel who watches from town greens across minuteman country, and whom at least one New England town really does dress in a Santa cap each December — printed in subtle grayscale on solid wood. Each oval ornament measures 3.35 × 4.92 inches and is laser-cut from solid wood a full 0.39 inches thick, so it has real weight in the hand, and the warm grain shows through to make every piece slightly unique. The statue stands alone on the front; the reverse carries the arched MINUTEMEN and Est. 1775 lettering, so it reads right from either side of the tree. Any town, any state — from the battle road to the Culpeper districts. As with the rest of Merlin Classics, profits support hunger relief.
A red ribbon comes attached for hanging, and a built-in magnetic back means it moves straight from the tree in December to the fridge, toolbox, or file cabinet the rest of the year — no nails or hooks. Because the ink is applied as a flat print over natural wood, you may notice lighter or darker areas where the grain is more pronounced — an honest detail that adds character rather than hiding it.
Solid wood with crisp UV printing; RoHS, LFGB, FDA, and CA65 compliant. A decorative piece for adult collectors, not a toy. Care is simple: wipe gently with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. With America’s 250th anniversary underway, this is the ornament for minuteman country everywhere.
The Minuteman Ornament Collection: solid wood with magnet back, pewter snowflake, or crystal glass — each gift-ready.
