The Kattegat Ghost Figurine - Saebjorn

Sale price295,00 kr

Saebjorn is a handmade collectable Ghost figurine, individually poured and engraved by The Nordic Ghost Merchants in Denmark.

The Kattegat is not a kind sea. It is the strait between Denmark and Sweden where the North Sea meets the Baltic. It's a place of cold currents and old memories. Fishermen who worked these waters did not speak of what they saw beneath the surface. They did not need to. The sea remembers on their behalf.  

The Kattegat Ghosts carry that water in them. Each one formed in the colours of an untamed Scandinavian sea; pale fog, dark storms and the blue-grey of a sky that hasn't seen the sun in weeks. They arrived without warning. They may not stay.

Along the Kattegat coast, Saebjorn was said to appear when the sea turned pale beneath the morning mist.

Fishermen told of seeing him standing where the water met the shore, watching boats return through fog so thick that land itself had disappeared.

To glimpse Saebjorn was considered a fortunate thing.

It meant the coast was closer than it seemed.

Some even believed he remained until the last vessel had found its way home.

By sunrise, he was always gone.

Saebjorn the ghost figurine stands at just short of 8 cm.

A handmade ghost figurine made by The Nordic Ghost Merchants. The body of the ghost is bone white with dark blue wave like marbling throughout. Front view on a grey studio background.
