Gonks are small mythological fluffy bearded creatures that resemble the traditional British garden gnome, they are also known as Tomte in Sweden, Tonttu in Finland, Nisse in Norway and Denmark. While they used to be seen as home protectors, these little characters, with their knitted hats originated from Scandinavian folklore but are now considered more as the Nordic version of our Santa Claus.
Complete with their traditional pointed high hats and long fluffy beards, these festive fun Santas are perfect in any themed decor at Christmas time.
