The garden gnome Albin “the Woodcutter” is a true collector’s item and a masterpiece of traditional craftsmanship. Originally designed around 1930 in Gräfenroda, this detailed figure has been faithfully recreated from the original molds and carefully handcrafted.
Zwergstatt Gräfenroda, the world’s last traditional garden gnome manufactory, exclusively uses high-quality clay from Germany. Each figure is fired at 1050°C (1922°F), ensuring exceptional durability and brilliance. Albin consists of five individually crafted parts, precisely assembled with great care. His hand-shaped beard and eyebrows are made using a refined technique from the 1930s, which has been revived by Zwergstatt. This traditional method gives him his distinctive charm and makes him a true work of art.
The finely hand-painted details highlight the craftsmanship and bring every figure to life. This historical model represents heritage, tradition, and masterful artistry. It is not only a unique garden decoration but also a sought-after collector’s item. Albin “the Woodcutter” is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use but is not frost-resistant. To preserve its beauty, it should be stored in a protected place during winter.
Since each piece is entirely handcrafted, slight variations in size and painting may occur, making every gnome truly one of a kind. With a height of approximately 18.9 inches (48 cm), Albin is a remarkable centerpiece for any collection. You will receive a certificate of authenticity, confirming its originality.
