The 2025 Annual Plate in Bronze: Santa's Workshop

51st Limited Edition in Our Annual Christmas Series

Every winter, the North Pole comes alive with the bustling energy of elves working on toys. The magic is captured in Wendell August Forge’s 2025 Annual Plate, “Santa's Workshop,” a handcrafted treasure that celebrates the timeless charm of holiday cheer. The scene is one of delightful chaos as mischievous elves are hard at work—helping as Santa goes through his extensive naughty or nice list.

The plate is a whimsical masterpiece, inspired by the watercolor of artist Emily Hendrie, and put into metal by master die engraver Len Youngo. Each handcrafted piece is made in America with care and precision.
For half a century we have handcrafted this collection to celebrate our favorite scenes of the season. The 2024 Annual Plate is inspired by the whimsical artwork of Emily Hendrie and put into metal by Master Die Engraver Len Youngo using hand, hammer and centuries-old techniques. Each is handcrafted by artisans in our Pennsylvania workshop and designed to be passed down for generations.
