Know before you buy
Yes, the gnome is crafted from durable designer resin, making it suitable for outdoor use. However, to keep the hand-painted details vibrant over time, we recommend placing it in a sheltered area or bringing it indoors during harsh winter months.
The gnome weighs 3 pounds. Its base is wide and sturdy, providing enough weight to keep it stable on flat surfaces like a patio table, garden stone, or desktop.
The statue is meticulously hand-painted with high-quality finishes. While it is designed to withstand outdoor conditions, prolonged exposure to direct, intense sunlight or heavy moisture may eventually cause the colors to fade.
Atlas stands 11 1/2 inches tall, measures 10 1/2 inches wide, and has a depth of 5 inches. It is a substantial piece that works well as a focal point on a shelf or tucked into a garden bed.
This is an exclusive design by artist Liam Manchester for Design Toscano. You will not find this specific weightlifting gnome design available from other retailers.
