Gnomes were a species of small, somewhat magical humanoids with large ears, often sporting beards and wearing pointy hats. Inanimate models of gnomes were often used as garden decorations.

Gog and Mim were two gnomes from a fantasy universe where humans were nearly unheard-of. They did not appear to age, and lived in a hollowed-out, giant mushroom converted into a house. Gog, the male one, wore a pointy hat and sported a bushy white beard. The human Janet Jenkins, after visiting them from a more mundane world, used Gog and Mim as models for clay garden gnomes she began selling. (COMIC: Enchanted)
