A stunning and substantial large hand-blown art glass cat figurine, approximately 7 inches tall and weighing approximately 2.5 pounds — a truly impressive piece of decorative glass art in the style of Murano or Blenko art glass.
The figurine depicts a seated cat in clear crystal glass with vivid canary yellow internal cane and ribbon work running in bold vertical stripes through the body, neck, and tail — a classic lampwork and art glass technique that creates a luminous, glowing effect when light passes through. The cat cradles a beautifully formed yellow ribbed ball of yarn between its front paws, rendered in dense yellow ribbed glass. The round head features applied clear glass pointed ears and delicately etched facial features including eyes, nose, and whisker lines. The tail is pulled and wrapped around the base of the figure, and the paws are individually formed at the front. The piece has a flat polished base.
A wonderful display piece for a windowsill, shelf, or mantle — the yellow cane work glows beautifully in natural light. A must-have for art glass collectors, cat lovers, and fans of mid-century decorative glass.
