Is this the leg lamp from A Christmas Story?

Yes. It is a Hallmark Keepsake ornament modeled on the leg lamp from the film, with the fishnet stocking, fringed shade and crate-style base.

About 1.5 by 1.5 by 3.75 inches and roughly 0.09 lb. It is a small ornament, so expect it to sit close to the branch rather than dominate the tree.

Is it a toy a child can play with?

No. It is a resin collectible ornament meant for display, and it can chip or break if dropped.

Does it light up or play sound?

It is listed as animated, but it is a resin display ornament rather than a plug-in lamp. Do not expect it to glow like a real lamp.

Is it a good gift for someone who has not seen the movie?

It works best for fans of the film. Without that context it reads as an odd novelty lamp rather than a classic ornament.

Our take on the Hallmark Christmas Ornament (a Christmas Story Leg Lamp)

A resin Keepsake ornament of the leg lamp from "A Christmas Story" — the fishnet stocking, the fringed shade and the crate-style base. It is small at about 1.5 by 1.5 by 3.75 inches and weighs under a tenth of a pound, so it hangs easily on a branch without pulling it down. It is a collectible aimed at fans of the film and at people who build a themed tree, and it stands out from generic baubles by being a recognizable movie prop rather than a ball. Owners rate it highly, and the main caveats are its small size and the fact that it is a display piece rather than a toy.
