Sniff
Nipsu
The Nipsu looks little like Filijonk without clothes, hairs and with big ears. It's made from light green mohair and his eyes are green. On the bottom of foots are texts Atelier Fauni Finland and in other feet text Sniff or Nipsu. The size for the troll in picture below is ca. 15 cm (ca. 7 inch). I have never seen different size of Sniff trolls. Sniff as other Moomin trolls made by Atelier Fauni, are made between 1950's...1970's.

Same text below written as finnish...

Nipsu muistuttaa jonkinverran Filijonkkaa ilman vaatteita ja hiuksia, lisäksi sillä on suuret suipot korvat. Turkki on vaaleanvihreää mohairia ja sen silmät ovat vihreät.
Jalkapohjissa on tekstit Atelier Fauni Finland toisessa ja Sniff tai Nipsu toisessa jalassa. Kooltaan Filijonkka on n. 15 cm tätä pienempiä en ole koskaan nähnyt.
Nämä Filijonkat kuten muutkin Atelier Faunin Muumihahmot on valmistettu 1950...1970 luvuilla.

First Moomin Trolls are made by Atelier Fauni in Finland from 1950's to 1970's.
