celebrating our 50th year of troll making

And just in time for Halloween, one of our newest members...
Troll Pet - Black Cat
3" ht (not counting Tail!) 16.75@
Not only a good companion for the trolls, they help our Woodland Witches set the mood for this spooky holiday.
Ken Arensbak made the original troll for his children in 1959 to help make his stories come to life.
To help celebrate it's 50th anniversary,
we are making this 1/3 size reproduction of that original troll (pictured on right - size not in proportion).
50th Anniversary Troll
12" ht. $59 @
This will be a Limited Edition of only
250 pieces, signed (by Neta Arensbak) and numbered with a special tag on bottom
of base.
While our troll design has changed through the years, we went back to our roots
to re-create Ken’s original troll by trying to apply the same technique and materials he used to produce that first inspiration.
Is there a troll you think we should be making?
Our Best Idea for a New Troll - Contest will be accepting new entries until October 31st. You can enter online here.
