The Stonewright Ghost Figurine - Keldrin

Keldrin is a handmade collectible Stonewright ghost figurine, individually poured and engraved by The Nordic Ghost Merchants in Denmark.

These ghosts have a deliberately cracked and chipped outer layer. 

Stonewrights are created through a carefully timed two stage casting process. Creating the fractured markings make each Stonewright entirely individual. 

No two fracture quite the same way.

Within the records of The Nordic Ghost Merchants, Stonewrights are associated with limewashed walls, old foundations and stones worn smooth by generations of hands. Their markings resemble the fine fractures found in ageing plaster and masonry; the quiet evidence of winters endured, timbers settling and houses refusing to fall.

They are not said to cause such cracks.

Rather, Stonewrights are recorded wherever something has been repaired many times and is still expected to endure.

For this reason, they have long been associated with persistence, repair and the stubborn survival of old places.

They are most often depicted sitting silently beside walls.

Whether they are inspecting the workmanship remains undocumented.

Keldrin is most often associated with repairs made from what could be salvaged.

Old stone, broken brick, fragments saved from collapsed walls, nothing is considered useless while some part of it can still be made to hold.

He is particularly fond of repairs that remain visibly imperfect.

Keldrin maintains that a wall need not look untouched.

It need only keep standing.

Keldrin the ghost figurine measures almost 9 cm in height.
