The Nordic Ghost Merchants Almanac of Ghosts 

Chapter I - The Fantoms

 

The Fantoms are part of the core collection at The Nordic Ghost Merchants. Offred in bone white & ivory consistently and seasonal colours sporadically across the wheel of the year.

The Fantoms are amongst the oldest of the travelling ghosts. They move between worlds quietly, witnessing what has been lost. They weep not from sorrow but from memory, each tear carries the weight of something the world has forgotten.

The precision printed Fantom ghost figurines have deliberate texture to mimic the starched texture of a sheet ghost.

The hand poured jesmonite Fantoms have a smoother texture for a more spectral feel and a heavier weight in the hand.

Maker's Notes - Fantom Ghost Figurines

 

  • Sorrowful crying eye details.
  • Elegant draped shape.
  • Slight forward lean of printed ghosts creates the feeling of a gliding movement.
  • Blurred tears.
  • Shaded folds.
  • Starched texture on printed ghosts.
