Christmas Gonks

Upgrade this year’s festivities with some zany Scandi style. Our collection of gonks embodies fun and Christmas cheer. Considered Scandinavia’s answer to Santa Clause, gonks typically come in the form of unique festive figurines and feature knitted hats, mittens and long bushy beards. Gonks have experienced a surge in popularity in previous years, and now represent an integral part of Christmas. We offer gonks in a range of sizes, colours and styles. Order your new Christmas gonk today, or get in touch with us to find out more about our services and products. We offer free delivery on orders over £50. Add a gonk to your Christmas tree, fireplace or shelf! Gonks are incredibly versatile and can be positioned on shelves, fireplaces, tables and chairs. We also offer hanging gonks, which can be used as unique Christmas tree decorations. Some of our gonks feature charming accessories. Opt for a skiing gonk or a gonk on a sleigh. Searching for the perfect gonk for a contemporary aesthetic? We stock gonks in grey and festive block colours. If you’re looking for something a little bit more unique, try ordering a polka dot, tartan or stripy gonk. We offer sparkly gonks, glittery gonks and knitted gonks. Our gonks are adorable. Their round faces are partially obscured by a long bushy beard and Christmas hat and they feature knitted winter clothing. Our skiing gonks look fantastic when hanging from the branches of a Christmas tree. For a winter wonderland look, try positioning your gonk on a frost-covered branch, garland or wreath. Welcome your neighbours, family and friends by placing a gonk on your porch or under an outdoor shelter. Some of our gonks feature fairy lights and glitter. Going for a more traditional look? Try seating or standing your gonk on a pile of logs or in an open wood shed.

Gnomes and hobgoblins inspire Gonks, often found in Nordic and Scandinavian mythology. They are short, rotund and are often red, gold, green or white. They have sweet button noses and a round face, which is normally obscured by a long, bushy beard and a pointed Christmas hat. They are usually dressed in knitted winter clothes, mittens and woolly striped socks. In folklore, gonks often hide in houses or barns. In some cases gonks are benevolent, bringing joy, fairy-like magic and good fortune to the family they chose to live with. If irritated, however, gonks can become mischievous. How can I display my new gonk? Try standing your gonk on a windowsill or in a doorway or arch. Position them in a porch or under an outdoor shelter to welcome guests and neighbours. Long-legged gonks, which can usually be manipulated into a sitting position, look fantastic on bookshelves, desks or mantlepieces. At Polhill, we also offer hanging gonks, which can be hung from the branches of Christmas trees. Non-hanging gonks can also be added to Christmas trees. Try nestling them between branches or fastening them to your tree with ribbon, tinsel or string. Position your gonk in a wicker basket for a rustic look.
