(the often shy and reclusive trolls from the forest:)
Ken Arensbak Troll Drawing

Our Trolls bring the legends to life!
handmade by the Arensbak family since 1959
​

Ken and Neta Arensbak ('arns-bock) were born and raised in Denmark,
where trolls are an integral part of Scandinavian folklore.
There were no troll dolls with the colorful spiked hair back then...
only real trolls from the deep forests that all children grew up hearing stories about.
When they moved to North America in 1949, and later opened their studio on Troll Mountain,
a bit of the old folklore (and a few trolls too) came with them!
