I had to get rid of the gnomes in my dynasty, I was overrun with them and they would keep sitting in the worst possible places, in front of toilets, the fridge, the dishwasher, had a lot of gnome related foot stomping going on
But one escaped the purge, a sculpting gnome, I don't know where it was hiding but it's suddenly appeared again and I can't remember which sim made it as I had 3 sculptors in the beginning but I'm pretty sure it was one of the dead sims and not my founder as it's worth over 13,000
I had no idea sculpting gnomes went up in value, I didn't sell it though, I decided it could hang about as I'm interested to see it's final worth when I've finished.
