Description
The Ikara Christmas gnome is a soft, plush figure in red and grey, standing 35cm tall, 17cm long and 13cm wide. His tall red hat has a deep, fluffy pile and bends over towards its point, and the brim sits low over his face, leaving just a round, pale nose peeping out above a long white beard. Beneath the beard, a rounded grey felt body carries two knitted arms striped in red and grey, finished with soft pale hands, and a pair of little brown feet sits at the front.
At 35cm he is big enough to hold his own on a mantelpiece, a hall table or a deep windowsill, yet small enough to tuck between candles and greenery on a bookshelf. The red hat brings a warm flash of colour to a plain wall, while the grey body sits quietly beside wood, white and other muted tones. He suits anyone who likes a cheerful, homely Christmas without tinsel on every surface, and he makes a kind gift for a neighbour, a teacher or a grandparent who loves to decorate. As decor he belongs indoors, somewhere dry and out of reach of little hands.
The Ikara gnome weighs 0.5KG, so he is easy to lift down and move from room to room as the decorations change. He is not a toy and is made for decoration only, so we would place him on a shelf rather than in a child's play corner. Care is simple: spot clean only, so treat any small mark gently on its own rather than washing him whole. When Christmas is done, wrap him loosely in tissue and store him upright in a box with room for his hat, so the pile stays full and the point keeps its shape for next December.
