    This Rainbow Art Glass cat measures 5" high and 1.75" wide and is minty, with the original label. The first image is close to the true color and the other three are a bit washed out due to the bright light I used to get more details. There are indentations for the eyes and feet and the ears are yellow. An iconic figurine for Rainbow Art Glass and a version of this one is used as an example of Rainbow's work at the first link below. A nice little cat. Enjoy!

    As noted in both links, Rainbow was purchased by Viking Glass as a subsidiary of that company. Viking made a similar cat after Rainbow ceased operations and I will post an image of one of Viking's cats from my collection.

      @Newfld - Thanks Jenni! I made a spot for this in the front of one of my china cabinets.

      @blunderbuss2 - I would be in trouble if cats caused sinus problems for me!

      @Ms.CrystalShip - Thanks! I like it, too!

      @OldeASDirt - Thanks! Rainbow made good glass!

      Thanks for loving my glass cat!
