This large and in charge Floralsilk Earth Standing Gonk is a Scandi-inspired decoration said to bring good luck to your home. Created with a brown body, bold orange hat, matching shoes and gloves. To finish, he has striped arms, a long brown beard and a round nose poking out.
The original folklore says that these curious little creatures have a preference for barns and houses during the cold seasons. If families treated them well, it was told that they would protect the family and bring them good luck. However, if the family did not treat them well and respect the creatures, they were said to play tricks on the family. The underlying message is to be welcoming and hospitable.
