Autumn Gonk Sat on a Pinecone Resin Decoration - Brown

This cheerful resin decoration shows a little autumn gonk sitting on top of a big brown pinecone, his arms flung wide as if he is greeting the season. He wears a tall, pointed mustard-yellow hat that curls over at the tip, an orange tunic with a black belt and a pair of brown boots that rest on the scales of the cone. A long white beard flows down from beneath a rosy nose, and the whole piece has a wood-grain texture that gives it the look of a whittled wooden figure. He stands 15.5cm tall, 8cm wide and 7cm deep.

Small and cheerful, he is just the right size for a mantelpiece, a windowsill, a bookshelf or the middle of the kitchen table, and he sits happily on a hall console beside a bowl of conkers. The brown cone and the warm orange and mustard tones echo the colours of falling leaves, so he brings an easy seasonal note to a room once the evenings start to draw in. Group him with small pumpkins, dried grasses and a scatter of acorns for a cosy autumn shelf. He also makes a cheerful little gift for anyone who enjoys a touch of seasonal fun around the house.

He is made from resin with a glazed finish over the painted detail, which picks out every scale of the pinecone, every fold of his beard and the creases in his boots. He sits on his pinecone base, so he stands on a shelf or table by himself with no hook or stand needed. To keep him looking his best, dust him now and then with a soft dry cloth, or wipe him gently with a slightly damp cloth and let him dry. When the leaves start to turn, set him at eye level by the door, where his raised arms can welcome everyone who comes in.
