 Handcrafted in the Pennines

Handcrafted Scandinavian Gnomes - otherwise known as tomte, nisse and tonttu 
​
Each gnome is individual and all are made in beautiful fabrics, have needle felt noses and a hand stitched finish.  A far cry from the mass produced gnomes - these little chaps all have their own unique character.  Your gnome will arrive along with a numbered certificate of authentication.


From Scandinavian folklore these little chaps are known as 'Tomte' (Swedish), 'Nisse' (Norwegian & Danish) 'Tonttu' (Finnish) - or simply a House Sprite:
It is said that they worked in the home and farm, taking care of the animals, doing chores and bringing good fortune and prosperity - all in return for porridge with a helping of butter! But be careful - he's a mischievous little imp if not shown the respect he deserves!...
