Collector’s Note
Italian ceramic animal figurines were popular decorative exports in the mid-20th century. This Siamese cat captures that distinctive modernist look—clean lines, exaggerated features, and expressive hand-painted eyes. Its realistic blue glass eyes give it striking presence, making it a perfect accent for mid-century décor or cat-themed collections.

Yes. Every photo on this page is the actual item you will receive. Not a stock photo, not a similar copy. What you see is what ships.

Honestly. This is vintage, so expect some age. When I find wear, writing, stains, loose pages, chips, or missing pieces, I note them and show them in the photos. Some marks add character. Some are just flaws. I tell you which is which so you can decide if this is the right one for you.
-
With care. Old books and fragile pieces are wrapped and boxed so they arrive the way they left me. Careful packing is one of the things buyers mention most in their reviews. Orders of $35 or more ship free.
-
Probably not. Everything here is one of a kind, and I rarely find the same item twice. Once it sells, it is gone. Vintage does not restock neatly.
