Burkhard was crafted using the unique hand-shaped beard technique, exclusively practiced in Gräfenroda. Every inch of this garden gnome is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, carefully sculpted from high-quality clay.

The figure consists of six individual parts, which, after meticulous shaping, undergo a firing process at 1922°F (1050°C) to ensure durability and quality.

The raw materials are sourced from Germany and selected with the utmost care. The Philipp Griebel manufactory, founded in 1874 in Gräfenroda, Thuringia, represents a long tradition of artisanal craftsmanship.

Burkhard embodies the timeless beauty and elegance of the early 20th century. His design from around 1900 exudes charm and authenticity.

Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, Burkhard brings not only a touch of nostalgia but also quality and craftsmanship to your home or garden.
