A mid century Modernist 'Sassy Standing Cat' figurine from the Small Zoo series, designed by Lisa Larson for Gustavsberg, Sweden. This design classic dates from 1955, and was produced until 1978, so circa 50s to 70s vintage.
Each Chamotte stoneware feline figurine was decorated by hand - they're all different. Deep red clay, like a terracotta, with black applied details, and taupe glazed face. Unsigned.
Very good vintage condition without any chips or cracks. Please study photos - he's great for the age and era. Just a tiny bit of wear and dirt from being loved and handled. Apx 10cm tall x 11cm wide x 4cm deep.
Includes P&P to the UK.

The estimated delivery date is based on your purchase date, the recipient's location, the seller's processing time and location, and the chosen courier.

It's our hope that your item gets where it's going as soon as possible, but given the factors involved, this is only an estimate.

Returns and exchanges accepted
Items weighing under 2kg total will be posted by 2nd class Royal Mail. If it's a high value item I'll add Signed For. Items weighing over 2kg will be posted by Hermes, and if they are high value I'll add Signed For. I may not be able to post to some areas of the UK, such as the Channel Islands, but I'll give it a good go! I'll try to post within 24 hours (when Post Office opening hours allow).
All postage abroad will be by Royal Mail's International Tracked and Signed service, so will need signing for your end. Please say if you'd prefer just a Tracked service instead. I can't post anything that weighs over 2kg or is larger than a 'small parcel'.
I have specially chosen these items to be of superior quality and condition for their age and era. All my items are vintage (25+ years old) and may naturally have some wear and tear which may not be in the description. I have written everything to the best of my ability, and tried to describe any obvious flaws. The photos also help to show the condition - please view all photos and read the descriptions.
For lower value items I'm happy for you to provide the address and unique code for a UK onward mailing company, but I cannot accept responsibility for any damage or non-delivery beyond the mailing company's address. Once the UK mailing company has safely received the parcel it is no longer my responsibility.
Why buy new? Buy vintage, and help protect the planet. You're rescuing vintage pieces for future generations. Also, please don't bin my packaging - save, re-use and recycle. Thank you.
I use large bubble bubble-wrap with strengthening card and sturdy cardboard boxes. I often double box for safety and I re-use old newspapers to fill any gaps. I have been selling on Etsy for over five years and know and trust my packing. Jewellery is posted in small sturdy cardboard jewellery boxes, in a mailing bag. (Please re-use or recycle any packaging!)
UK free postage is factored into all my prices... I think UK customers like to see an upfront price including postage with no hidden surprises. Sorry I can't offer free post worldwide.
