This sweet lil' gnome was given a new life after I purchased him and his friends in their original, much-loved, vintage condition (see last photo). He's now ready to bring warm smiles for more years to come!
He's close to 4.5 inches (11 cm) tall and has been made of plastic. I gave his face a makeover with spun cotton, a tradition that began in 19th century Germany, where cotton is moulded into shapes which are then painted and decorated. I gave him a new fluffy wool beard and he wears a painted wool felt hat. His body has been given a fresh coat of paint and dusted with gold and white German glass glitter. His little robin friend is made of spun cotton, he also holds greenery and silver tinsel.
*The gnome's shade of blue differs slightly than how they appear in photos*
