Sunflower Gnome
Couldn't load pickup availability
A nisse (usually Norwegian) and a tomte (usually Swedish) are similar characters. They are both solitary, mischievous domestic sprites responsible for the protection and welfare of the farmstead and its buildings. Regretfully he has yet to clean my house but since I have seen no spirits I believe he is protecting it.
This gnome has a some lovely sunflowers on his blue hat. He is made from speckled clay with a white beard and his nose is unglazed to show the beauty of the clay.
He is approx 3.75" tall and 2.5" wide.
All of my pieces are 100% handmade by myself, normally under the supervision of helper kitty. I use stamps, stencils, decals, and occasionally a bit of my own drawing for each piece. Due to the wonderfulness of handmade ceramics there can be imperfections, adding to the distinctive appearance.
You can hear about new items or sales by following me on many social networks, you also get to see cute pictures of helper kitty helping:
