He Holds the Lantern
So You Don't Have To
A hand-painted resin squirrel that fixes flat to a tree or fence, with a solar lantern swinging from his paw that lights itself at dusk.
Lantern
for Rain
Flat
at Dusk
The Lantern Does the Rest
A small panel in the lantern cap charges through the day and the flame-warm bulb wakes on its own once the light drops.
A Tree Is Wasted Vertical Space
Uses the Trunk
Flat-backed so it sits tight against bark, a fence post or a shed wall without leaning or wobbling.
No Wiring at All
The lantern is solar. Nothing to plug in, no cable to staple along a fence.
Sculpted, Not Moulded Flat
The fur, paws and tail are carved in relief, so it reads as a real ornament close up rather than a silhouette.
An Easy Present
It lands well with anyone who has a garden and has run out of places to put things.
Carved, Not Printed
The fur, paws and tail are sculpted in relief and hand-painted, so he holds up close-to rather than reading as a flat silhouette on the bark.
- Sculpted relief detail
- Hand-painted resin, sealed for outdoors
- About fourteen inches nose to tail
The Lantern Is the Light
A small panel in the lantern cap charges through the day, and the flame-warm bulb wakes on its own once the light drops.
- Flame-toned glow, closer to a candle
- On at dusk, off at sunrise
- No cable to staple along a fence
One Screw and He Is Up
The back plate is flat, so he sits flush against bark, a fence post or a shed wall without leaning or wobbling.
- Single-screw fixing
- Uses the trunk nobody decorates
- Stays out all year

Fix the Back Plate
One screw into bark, a fence post or a shed wall and he sits flush.
Leave Him to It
He charges by day and lights himself at dusk from then on.
Pick Your Pack
One squirrel on one tree is sweet. Two or three at different heights, or spread across the trees you actually walk past, is what makes the garden feel considered after dark.

What Buyers Say
“Screwed him to the old apple tree and he has been the best thing in the garden since. The lantern is properly warm, not that blue-white glare.”
“Solid resin, not the flimsy stuff I expected at this price. Two months of rain and he still looks new.”
“Lovely detail on the fur and tail. The lantern is subtle rather than bright, which suits us but worth knowing.”

Before You Order
There is a flat back plate with a fixing point. One screw into bark, a fence post or a shed wall holds him flush.
No. It is solar, with a small panel in the lantern cap. Nothing to plug in.
Yes. The resin is sealed and weatherproof and he is designed to stay out all year.
It is a warm flame-toned accent glow, closer to a candle than a floodlight.
About fourteen inches from nose to tail tip, so noticeably larger than a hand.
