Harp Seal: Felted Alpaca Sculpture

Meet the Harp Seal—a charming Arctic dweller also called the Saddleback or Greenland Seal! This earless seal calls the icy northern Atlantic and Arctic waters home. Once grouped with cousins in the Phoca genus, it earned its own special classification back in 1844. These sociable creatures thrive in bustling colonies, making them fascinating subjects for learning about marine biodiversity. Our delightful Felted Alpaca Sculpture brings this remarkable seal to life, handcrafted from soft alpaca fiber to spark curiosity about ocean species. Every sculpture is wonderfully unique with its own personality, lovingly created to inspire wonder about the natural world.

What makes this special:

• Realistic details - authentic features and character carefully needle felted

• Dual display options - includes hanging loop or stands beautifully on any surface

A bit of our felting history:

Lanart pioneered alpaca needle felting in Peru nearly 20 years ago, training a team of artisans in a craft that had traditionally only been practiced with wool. Today, every piece is still authentically handmade by those same skilled artisans—bringing originality, heritage, and genuine alpaca fiber to every little felted critter.
