Meet Oscar, the newest addition to the Åsas Tomtebod family of handcrafted Scandinavian gnomes. At approximately 68 cm (just over 26 inches), Oscar fills the perfect spot between Verner (50 cm) and Olle (80 cm). His impressive size and long, flowing sheepskin beard give him a warm, welcoming presence—ideal for displaying on a mantel, entryway, or as a centerpiece in your holiday décor.

Each Oscar is finished with genuine sheepskin from Gotland, though versions made with Icelandic sheepskin are also available. No two Tomte are alike, making Oscar a true heirloom-quality treasure.

About the Tradition

Tomte are a beloved part of Scandinavian folklore, serving as guardians of the home and farm. Mischievous yet protective, they’re said to bring good fortune when cared for—often rewarded with a small treat to keep them from stirring up trouble.

Artisan Craftsmanship

Handmade in Sweden, every Tomte from Åsas Tomtebod is designed and created with care using only natural materials. The wooden base, felted wool hat, and natural sheepskin beard ensure that each Oscar is unique. With his impressive height and authentic construction, Oscar makes a striking addition to any Nordic-inspired home.
