    The first of two Murano Cats. This one looks like a tutti frutti, but I know it's not called that. It has aventurine in the tail and collar. The collar on this style cat is rather unusual, as I haven't found another in this color scheme, or another of any scheme, with the collar. The detail of the applied eyes and mouth is impressive, and a sign of true craftsmanship. I would appreciate it if anyone out there can give me any info, regarding origin and multi-color style specifics.

      Thank you MALKEY for the accolades. First class craftsmanship. My goal is to track this back to the maker, I guess it will be a name I recognize. Thanks again.
