In folklore, gonks are considered magical guardians and helpers, protecting homes from evil spirits, bringing good luck, and caring for nature by tending to plants and animals.
With their playful nature, they engage in harmless pranks to keep things lively and fun.
We can’t think why anyone wouldn’t want such a little character in their home, especially a tiny beaded one!
One gonk has a pink stripey hat and a plant pot they are tending to, while the other has a blue stripey hat and his own gonk mobile car, so he can hop into his car and go for a drive and visit the other creatures in the forest.
