For many years, gnome and pixie figures and statues have graced people's gardens and homes all around the world. In mythology and fairy tales, gnomes have been associated with positive energy, providing guardianship over animals and families and being welcome symbols of good luck.

They are often depicted in all kinds of poses -- playing sport or musical instruments, leaping over mushrooms, interacting with animals and holding signs. Through the years, they have become much loved additions to a classic fairy garden.
