"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.

"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!

"She loves it!"
My mother loves our black cat Leonardo. We got this for her as a Christmas gift, and she absolutely adores it. The detail is amazing. It is a small piece, beautifully carved and shaped. It was the perfect gift and reminds her of Leo, so she can have him with her every day.
