Hi Friends ~
I have two new additions to the family...
We're still deciding on names. I'm thinking about Knick and Knack ! What do you think? I'm also thinking about Sylvester for the black and white kitten, and yes, Tweety for the calico. Any suggestions you have would be appreciated.
So, in their honor, I thought I'd showcase a couple of cat knick knacks that are now in my shop at AllVintageKnickKnack.etsy.com.
The above adorable cat figurine has hand painted features with a great, bright red bow around her neck. She was made by Enesco, probably in the late 1950s or early 1960s.
The adorable little sweetie above was Made in Japan most likely in the 1950s. She has great coloring and how about that pose. Look at her little rear paw/foot up in the air... and her front paw is waving, "Hello." And there's a teeny, tiny little pink flower at her neck. The eyes are everything! Purrrrrrrrr-fect!
And finally, this little guy. He was also Made in Japan and has a lot of detail. Hand painted features along with a bright red bow. Interesting nose area. The pink is uncommonly cute. This is a well made piece and cute as a button!

Hello Friends ~
If you love vintage knick knacks and figurines, as I do, then follow me on a journey that will take us around the world. We'll explore how the adorable pixies were made in Japan back in the 1950s.
We'll also take a look at German knick knacks. We'll see how all those hand formed, delicate flower petals were made in England and we'll see dozens of figurines from other countries.
How are knick knacks made? Glad you asked! We'll be taking a look at just that and we'll talk about the different types of materials that were used in vintage knick knacks, including bisque and porcelain.
We're going to have fun on this blog, so fasten your seat belts and hang on for the wild ride ahead!
