Garden Gnome – Leo “the Fisherman”

Leo the Fisherman – a timeless legend in garden gnome form! This model, originally designed by Karl Nüchter in 1905, is now lovingly crafted in the Philipp Griebel Manufactory, which has been known for its exceptional craftsmanship since 1874. Leo consists of five individual parts, carefully assembled by skilled artisans with attention to detail. A special feature is the hand-shaped beard technique, used to refine the beard, eyebrows, and hairline – a historical method from the 1930s, revived by Zwergstatt Gräfenroda, giving Leo his unique detail and authenticity.

Every brushstroke that adorns Leo reflects the historical style and gives this garden gnome an unmistakable personality. He is not just a work of art but also a true collector’s item and a piece of living history, bringing a nostalgic charm to your garden or indoor space. With a height of approximately 23.6 inches (60 cm), Leo is sure to be the center of attention. An authentication certificate confirms the authenticity of this unique garden gnome, further emphasizing the high-quality craftsmanship.

The Leo the Fisherman garden gnome is made from high-quality raw materials from Germany and is 100% handcrafted in Thuringia. This gnome combines craftsmanship, history, and aesthetic elegance, making it perfect for lovers of traditional garden gnomes and collectors. Leo is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, but not frost-resistant. To preserve its colors and fine details, it should be stored in a protected place during the winter. A true treasure for any collection!
