Garden gnomes small
General Information
Pot ornaments
These garden gnomes get their hollow clay bodies in plaster molds and their colorful shape brushstroke by brushstroke by hand. They are "cactus gnomes". Following an old tradition, they are placed on wooden sticks and placed in cactus pots (neither of which are supplied) - they also decorate other houseplants.
From good spirits
A real garden gnome is always made of clay and baked in a fire (and not cast in plastic). It is at home in Gräfenroda in Thuringia. Fortunately for us, production there has been transferred from the hands of the traditional Griebel manufactory, founded in 1874, to the "Zwergstatt" - otherwise the clay garden gnomes would soon no longer exist. Our garden gnomes are given their hollow clay bodies in plaster moulds and their colourful shape by hand, brushstroke by brushstroke. To protect them from the weather, they are coated with a layer of clear varnish. Worth noting: Since March 2022, the gnomes have been under the special protection of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Thuringia.
