Some moments are over in a heartbeat but stay with you forever. Here, one little gnome leans in beneath the brim of a tall red hat to plant a kiss on the other's cheek. She smiles and clasps her hands to her chin in delight. Their twisting red hats rise side by side, and each figure wears a matching red heart.

The warm stone-effect bodies have a carved, hand-worked texture, with finely etched faces and soft, swept-back hair. They contrast with the glossy, rich red of the hats and hearts. The pair stand together on a textured birch-log base.

This is a sweet anniversary or Valentine's gift and a romantic keepsake. It also works as a Christmas gnome ornament for a mantelpiece, shelf or windowsill.
