Resembles a small planter/figurine.
Egg green and yellow, with cinnamon beige, cobalt blue. Lighter beige for cats face.
Appears to be an almost anamorphic chubby old man cat with a cobalt blue scarf- which is upon closer inspection, a loose blue bow.
An adoring crude fashioned face peering into the clay basket vessel, longing for what’s inside.
Cats tail is sculpted close to the hindquarters. Front paws clutch the basket rim.
Cat figure was and is a fashioned handle. (best to not stress it by use, these days, due to age, composition and value.)

Measures: 5” x 3” x 2.75”
