Folk art wood carved cat statue with pocket watch. A cat lover gift by Carviani.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHe was not planning to stay long. The umbrella is already in his hand, the bowler is on, the pocket watch has been checked. He is the kind of cat who is always somewhere slightly more important than where he currently is, and he has the wardrobe to make that entirely believable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a hand carved and entirely hand painted wooden cat sculpture, approximately eight inches tall, and it is the most formally accessorized figure Carviani has produced. The suit is herringbone tweed, painted across the entire jacket and matching trousers in a fine two-tone weave of olive, brown and pale gold, every chevron placed by hand. The lapels are wide and well-cut. In the breast pocket a folded white pocket square. At the throat a loosely draped white cravat secured with a gemstone pin, the stone painted in soft blue-grey inside a gold bezel setting.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gloves are a warm tan leather with painted studded detail along the cuff. From one side hangs the gold chain of a pocket watch, the watch itself painted with a readable dial. In the other hand, a furled black umbrella with pale blue scrollwork on the canopy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe face is a Russian Blue, painted in the same fine directional stroke technique as the other grey cats in the collection, but here the expression is different. The green eyes are cooler, more considered. He is not appraising you the way the brocade jacket cat does. He is tolerating your presence while thinking about something else entirely. That distinction was put there by the painter and it is exactly right for a cat in a herringbone suit with a pocket watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the herringbone pattern is painted across the full surface of both the jacket and the trousers, this figure rewards close examination in a way that photographs can only partially convey. Hold it in good light and the weave becomes a painting within a painting. That is hours of work on a surface measured in inches.\u003cbr\u003e\nPlace him on a mantel and he becomes the room's most distinguished object without any effort on your part. On a writing desk he presides. Among a collection of Carviani figures he is the one who arrived with a full itinerary and a firm opinion about the quality of everyone else's tailoring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHe is a gift for the cat person who appreciates real craft, the collector who has been looking for a folk art figure with this level of character and detail, or simply someone who looked at him and felt, with complete certainty, that he was meant to live in their home. Because each piece is carved and painted entirely by hand, the precise weight of the tweed pattern, the exact colour of the cravat stone, and the particular expression in those green eyes will belong only to this carving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eType: Hand carved and hand painted wooden cat sculpture, folk art figurine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial: Solid carved wood, hand painted throughout in fine layered detail\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eColor: Slate grey Russian Blue coat, full herringbone tweed suit in olive, brown and pale gold, white cravat, blue-grey gemstone cravat pin in gold bezel, tan studded leather gloves, black bowler hat with brown band, black umbrella with blue scrollwork canopy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: Approximately 8 inches tall\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDetail: Full herringbone tweed weave painted across entire jacket and matching trousers, miniature pocket watch with painted readable dial on gold chain, gemstone cravat pin with painted gold setting, blue scrollwork umbrella canopy, studded leather glove detail, white pocket square, directional fur stroke painting throughout\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAccessories: Furled umbrella held in one hand, pocket watch on gold chain, cravat pin, bowler hat\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStyle: Folk art, anthropomorphic, Victorian gentleman, Edwardian, collector sculpture, tweed and tailoring\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: Hand painted and sealed.
