"The perfect gift"

I gave this to a friend who was having a bad day and she fell in love with it. I explained that this was created by my favorite artisan and she was so excited when she saw the signature. She wanted to know his name, and, when I told her, she decided to change it a bit. She named him Desi, short for Desidero, or wish in Italian. He has a permanent place in her bedroom.

Best Uses

  • Adds a peaceful touch to a room

"Very peaceful!"

This is my second carving from the artist and it is just as beautiful and peaceful as the meditating cat. The blessing cat is displayed at the entrance to my house to bless those who enter. I love it!

It is perfect in every way. Just like this cat I had. I loved that cat. Her name was Mrs. Baby. This statue is now the centerpiece to a shrine I have built for her, since her disappearance.
