Lantern Sprite Felt Figurine
A quiet companion for the curious hours. The Lantern Keeper sits with its ivory head gently tilted, cradling the handle of a black spider-shaped lantern. Uneven dark facial markings give this skull-like sprite a puzzled, endearing expression, while a yellow-orange felt flame adds a warm touch to its otherwise monochrome world.
Each figurine is individually needle-felted from natural wool, with subtle variations in posture, expression, and texture that give every sprite its own character. A distinctive keepsake for Halloween shelves, reading corners, and collectors who prefer their spooky characters a little gentler. Pair it with our Midnight Spider Felt Figurine to bring another curious visitor into the scene. The lantern and flame are decorative, with no lighting function.

The lantern and felt flame are decorative only; do not light or insert a candle. Intended as decorative collectible art, not a children's toy.
