Immerse yourself in the magical and slightly mischievous world of fairy tales with this unique sculpture, capturing the essence of the “Grumpy” Gnome. A handcrafted 3D puzzle made by skilled artisans from Val Gardena, it exudes an irresistibly cheeky charm thanks to its unmistakable expression: thick, furrowed eyebrows, a downturned mouth — and a small, sweet bird resting in the palm of his hand, revealing his tender heart.
Every detail reflects the exceptional craftsmanship of Val Gardena artisans, who have brought softness, character and personality to the wood. The rounded shapes, pointed hat, flowing beard and intricately carved tunic with belt showcase the precision of traditional wood carving and invite you to discover every detail by touch.
Made from high-quality lime wood, carefully selected for its fine grain and lightness, with a completely natural finish that enhances the material’s bright, smooth and velvety grain. The porous surface makes it perfect for painting with watercolours: colour the hat, tunic and little bird however you like — and create a truly one-of-a-kind grumpy gnome.
