Paul Cardew Design Cool Catz Sitting, Paisley, PCD15
Paul Cardew

Paul Cardew 'Cool Catz' | Large Sitting Cat in Gilded Paisley

The Ultimate Expression of Bohemian Elegance: This full-sized Sitting Cat represents the peak of the Cool Catz aesthetic. Standing tall and composed, the silhouette provides the perfect canvas for the mesmerising Paisley design. It is a piece that commands attention, blending the mystery of the feline form with the ornate complexity of traditional Persian-inspired motifs.

Luxurious Gold Accents: The "Sitting" model is the most prestigious in the range, and this variant is finished with exquisite gold gilding. The metallic gold traces the swirling "buta" or teardrop shapes of the paisley pattern, creating a shimmering effect as it catches the light. This is not just a figurine; it is a high-end decorative asset designed for the sophisticated home.

A Rare Window into Cardew History:

• Limited Production: Like its smaller "Kittenz" counterparts, the full-sized Paisley Cat was produced for only a very short time in the early 2000s.

• Studio Craftsmanship: Hand-finished in the Paul Cardew Design Studio in England, ensuring that no two patterns sit exactly the same on the ceramic body.

• Investment Grade: As the larger model in a discontinued series, this Sitting Cat is a "must-have" for collectors looking to complete their hierarchical displays.

Collector's Note: Pairing the Large Sitting Paisley Cat with the Stretching Paisley Kitten creates a stunning "Mother and Kit" display that showcases the evolution of this specific design across different scales.

Cool Catz and Kittenz

Cool Catz and Kittenz were another amazing creation by Paul Cardew. In each set there are four differently poised felines, the larger Catz and the smaller Kittenz. Each set consists of one sitting, one stretching, one sitting with paws crossed and one in a scared pose. Paul Cardew has an incredible ability to have created the exact representation of a cat's posture in these designs. Anyone who owns a cat will know exactly what we mean! From every angle they are absolutely fabulous! The decorations on them are stunning and include either silver gilding or gold gilding using 18ct gold lustre, just to add that little extra bit of purrfection!
