Small. Ancient. Considerably more interesting than the garden centre would have you believe.
Gnomes have been part of European folklore for centuries — secretive creatures of the earth, keepers of hidden things, nocturnal workers in mines and forests and the quiet spaces between worlds. Long before Rien Poortvliet and Wil Huygen gave them their now-iconic red hats and peaceful woodland lives, gnomes were the kabouters of the Low Countries, the tomte of Scandinavia, the household spirits and underground guardians of a dozen different traditions. Small in stature. Enormous in mythology.
Whether you're drawn to the classic Poortvliet gnome in all its illustrated, lore-rich detail, the cheeky garden gnome with something to prove, or the more fantastical interpretations that have wandered through video games, fantasy novels and animated films, our gnome collection has something for every admirer of the small and the mysterious.
Figurines, decorations, gifts and collectibles — all celebrating creatures who were here long before us and will, in all likelihood, be here long after.
Mind the mushroom rings. They didn't appear there by accident.
