Duangkamol offers the gift of good fortune with a pair of elegant cats. They are crafted by hand with legendary Celadon ceramic techniques featuring a unique green glaze. Known in Japan as Maneki Neko, the bobtail cats holding their left paw are said to attract wealth. According to Feng Shui, the cats should be placed in the wealth area of a house, usually the southeast.

Standing on one foot, this cat closes its eyes while expertly balanced in vrkasana or "tree posture" in Hindu yoga. Nengah Sudarsana masterfully carves this suar wood sculpture by hand, replicating the legendary meditation position with a whimsical cat.

Holding its front paws above its head, a black and white tuxedo cat reaches toward the sky while sitting in the asana, or lotus position. Inhaling and exhaling deeply, the cat practices Hindu yoga in a sculpture by Bali's Nengah Sudarsana. He masterfully carves and paints the albesia wood feline by hand.

Regal, beautiful and mystical, the butterfly symbolizes the soul according to Mexican beliefs. Alejandro de Esesarte crafts a splendid outdoor wall art sculpture which he paints by hand with green undertones, the color of renewal and good luck.

Working near Singaraja, in the mountainous northern region of Bali, artisans collect naturally fallen branches and glean wood from the local coffee plantations to fashion these delicate, colorful wind chimes. Once the reclaimed wood — teak and coffee — is gathered, each piece is sorted by size and color before being hand-shaped and strung with pieces of cut glass. Dazzling in the sunlight, the resulting rainbow chime is a gorgeous example of nature-inspired design. Each piece will vary slightly, due to the natural variations of the wood.
