Loving Gnomes...


I have to admit, I have an obsession with gnomes.  I'm not sure what it is about them but I just can't get enough of them.  Despite my love for them, I'm not sure about dropping this kind of cash on them, they are $374 each and they are plastic!

Hive Modern, Design Philippe Starck, 2000.


"This year gold and red, the colors that symbolize Christmas, enliven two of Kartell's cult products: Philippe Starck's Gnomes and Anna Castelli Ferrieri's Componibili modular units. Offered here are Philippe Starck's Gnomes. These playful Gnomes, Attila and Napoleon, are available for the first time, in a gilded version emphasising their irreverence and cuteness.

These very special characters are striking on account of their originality and non-conformism. They were conceived to furnish any environment with an eye towards practicality. An exciting addition to the Kartell collection. These limited edition Gnomes have been cast in gold plastic and are available for a limited time."
