Unicorns Appraisal

Collection of Garden Gnomes and Unicorn

This collection features a diverse assortment of ceramic or painted resin garden gnomes and a single white unicorn figurine, arranged closely together on a bed of wood chip mulch. The gnomes vary significantly in size, color, pose, and thematic elements, ranging from traditional designs with red, blue, or green hats and white beards to more whimsical or patriotic variations, some holding American flags. Many display distinct painted features, including rosy cheeks, detailed facial hair, and various colored clothing. Visible condition issues include some chipping, scuffs, and possibly fading paint on several figures, indicating outdoor exposure and age. One gnome, for instance, exhibits a significant chip or missing piece from its base. Another appears to be part of a set, holding a miniature Green Bay Packers shield, suggesting a sports fan theme. A few smaller gnomes are unpainted or are painted in muted, uniform colors, perhaps as blanks for DIY painting or simply older pieces with heavily faded paint. The overall craftsmanship varies, with some gnomes appearing to be mass-produced, while others might suggest a handmade or hand-painted origin due to unique detailing. The unicorn, though largely white, features a rainbow mane and tail, adding to the whimsical nature of the collection. The arrangement suggests a display in a garden or outdoor space.
