The Yule King - a Green Man for wassailing
The Yule King stands as a spirit of winter’s deep magic — guardian of the dark season and herald of returning light.
Created through needle-felting techniques on a gently stiffened wool base, this mask is both strong and lightweight, designed for comfortable wear or striking wall display. Rich tones of evergreen and winter bark form the face, layered with felted leaves and hand-spun wool tendrils that capture the energy of midwinter’s stillness and rebirth.
The mask comes with a removable mounting pad, allowing it to be displayed when not in use. ✨ Inspired by ancient solstice traditions and the turning of the year — where darkness gives way to light.
