The Kattegat Ghost Figurine - Saevar

Sale price295,00 kr

Awarded Entity Number - ADK1307-KGS

Chosen 8th of November, in the Year of Quiet Hauntings.

Placed into the New World.

Saevar 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.

They say Saevar appears when the colour of the sea begins to change.

His name was spoken quietly by those who worked the Kattegat waters, especially on days when the horizon darkened faster than expected.

Some believed he drifted ahead of the weather, carrying the hush that falls before wind and rain.

To glimpse Saevar from the corner of one’s eye was taken as a warning to turn homeward while the passage was still safe.

Those who listened were said to reach shore before the storm truly began.

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