Purrquoise Cat – Chinese Reproduction

Discover the charm of the cat Purrquoise, an originally Chinese porcelain cat from the 18th century. This beautiful figurine is finished in a radiant turquoise and may have served as an incense burner. The cat was fitted with glossy glass eyes in France and placed on a gilded bronze stool with a richly decorated cushion. The stool of this replica is also gilded! It is said that Purrquoise was part of the collection of the Marquise de Pompadour.

Developed in collaboration with the J. Paul Getty Museum USA / J. Paul Getty Trust. The museum gave this originally Chinese cat its fitting name, Purrquoise. (CH07, h. 15 cm.)

The VIKINGS or NORSEMEN are primarily known as raiding warriors, called the ‘plague from the North’ by their contemporaries, but that is an incomplete picture. The Vikings (c. 800-1050 AD) were Scandinavian seafarers, but mainly traders who explored the rest of Europe and America from Norway, Denmark, and Sweden. Known for their longships, they carried out raids, established settlements, and engaged in trade.

Each figure brings the past to life in a contemporary style. (WU71104 Viking on horseback, h. 26.5 cm – WU78081 warrior with axes, h. 16 cm – WU72277 Ship, h. 15.5 cm / l. 17.5 cm – WU78082 female warrior, h. 15.5 cm.)

NEW from Salvador Dalí: melting watch

The painting ‘The Persistence of Memory’ is one of the most recognizable works of the surrealist Salvador Dalí.
The “soft” melting clocks symbolize the relativity and fluidity of time – time is not fixed, but can distort, especially in dreams or memory. Dalí himself said that he was inspired by a piece of Camembert that had melted in the sun.
Although the painting is small (about 24 × 33 cm), its surreal power has had a huge influence on art, design, and popular culture. The work is part of the collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City.
(SD16 Melting Watch on base, as shown – h. 12 cm, SD15 Melting Watch without base – h. 8 cm.)
