Norwegian Santa (Nisse) Knome NWOT

This festive Norwegian inspired Santa (Nisse) decoration is a great way to bring some festive holiday cheer to your home that the whole family can enjoy.  The Nisse is part of the old Nordic folklore, and is a supernatural being. But what specifically is a nisse? Is it a gnome, an elf, or perhaps a Norwegian Santa?  The Nisse is a short grown being with an old man’s face and a grey or white beard. Usually he wears a red hat, wooden shoes and a wadmal jacket and pants (wadmal is a coarse, dense, usually undyed wool fabric).  The Nisse usually lived out in the stable or on the barn, but he could also live up in the mountains or in old trees out in the forest. It’s hard to get a glimpse of the Nisse since he usually makes himself invisible. But even though he is rarely seen, he is never far away and is always paying close attention to what is going on.  A Nisse can have a bit of a temper. They are not dangerous, but definitely a bit angry and very determined. They can be quite mischievous, so in the old folk belief it was considered important to be on good terms with them. Usually the Nisse is a man (nissefar), but there are also tales about his wife (nissemor) and his children (nissebarn).   Accepting reasonable offers today. Bundle your likes and save more 🤑.
