Up for sale is an exceptional piece of early 20th-century American foundry art: an authentic antique circa 1910s–1920s Hubley cast iron standing garden gnome statue doorstop. Standing at an impressive 14 inches tall, this solid, heavy-duty figural piece was proudly cast at the legendary Hubley Manufacturing Co. works in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
This historic design captures a charmingly rustic gnome with an expressive face, a finely detailed textured beard, a classic pointed cap, and boots. He is heavily weighted, engineered to serve elegantly as a grand formal floor doorstop or an iconic lawn guardian.
