      Awh- she's so beautiful, as mentioned above she's so simplified and elegant. I imagine she has just set out on a moonlit night and has come to a further part of the neighbourhood she'd just not quiet sure of, hence why she seems to be pausing and watchful!

      Has such a cool smoky look to it!

      Many thanks for the kind compliments Ken, the grey glass seems to be a staple with Swedish animals & I love it too

      Eileen thank you for the fabulous words and I do see the very Nordic simplicity here, the focus is on the cat's stillness yet wariness, it is made like a little statue but the head moves around expectantly

      Yes Lauren this cat looks quite watchful and yet serene, something of a paradox but the artist certainly made her original. Thanks as always for your wonderful compliments & interpretation

      Thanks MrsT for the lovely comment, it is rather a smoky grey color, this also came in clear glass but I always favor the colors esp this one which is a true cat fur color

      Lol AnythingObscure, thanks for the very fun comment and my morning smile - if I call this kitty she just may come over :)

      This cat, apart from colour, seems very close to one produced by Hoya Glass. I think the Hoya ones were part of a series, but I have only ever seen photos, so can't be sure just how close this one is.

      Thanks Karen for the super comment and love, you are probably right that Hoya did this cat first, as other companies are such copycats. I love its mysterious quality and hooded eyes
