Menacing squid-anthropoid ornament. Based on H. P. Lovecraft's short story The Call of Cthulhu. From the underwater city of R'lyeh, bringing you a figure fit for any anthropoid being. The monstrous Cthulhu comes from the mind of horror writer, H.P.Lovecraft. He is said to resemble a human octopus and stands hundreds of meters tall. With webbed human-looking arms and legs and a pair of rudimentary wings on his back, it is no surprise that Lovecraftians worship him. In our version you can see Cthulhu sat on an ancient rune, clutching his knees with his long, thin fingers. He stares menacingly while his tentacles curve and curl down to his torso. A pair of fleshy wings protrude from his back, underneath his bulbous head. Hand cast in the finest resin and then carefully and expertly hand-painted, this piece is the perfect way to honour the Great Old One. Measures 17cm.
