Know before you buy
Because this piece is made of paper mache, it is designed for use with battery-operated LED tea lights or fairy lights only. Do not use real flame candles, as they pose a significant fire hazard.
No, this item is strictly for indoor use. Paper mache is porous and can be damaged by moisture, humidity, or direct exposure to the elements.
To maintain the finish, simply wipe the surface gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using water, cleaning sprays, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the hand-painted details.
The vintage distressing is an intentional design feature. Each piece is hand-painted to achieve an authentic, aged look, meaning slight variations in the finish are expected and contribute to the character of the item.
Yes, the ghost is designed as a standalone decorative piece with a sturdy base. At 19.5 inches tall, it makes a significant statement, so ensure your surface is wide enough to accommodate its 14.5-inch width and 12.75-inch depth.
