Add some holiday cheer to your home decor with a Swedish Tomte. The tomte is made of wood, with a wool felt body, hat and beard. Available in three sizes. Made in Sweden.
The tomte is one of the most popular Scandinavian mythological characters. They are known to safegard farmers, and their families and farms, against any misfortune. A Tomte is extremely short, to remain hidden from humans, with surmountable strength and magical skills. It is customary to express acknowledgement to the tomte, leaving him a bowl of porridge on Christmas Eve. By doing this, a tomte will bring the family good fortune in the coming year.
