Another piece I picked up at the Collectible show.  I thought he (the cat) was very Striking!!  I liked.  I did not notice till I got home that it was signed.  Looks like Durand (which is France I believe).  Any other knowledge about this guy?  Or year?

~ 5.50 inches tall
~ 2.75 long
~ 1.25 wide

Just such a striking piece I find, IMHO......I HAD to have him !!    :thup:   Thanks

J.G. Durand is & has been into everything for years, Luminarc, Cristal D'Arques, Mikasa, etc. They've been selling animals for many years & your cat is on several eBay auctions. Not certain a date can be pinpointed though. Ken

jg durand is a brand from ARC - the largest single glass maker in the world. Brands include arcopal, arcoroc, crystal d' arques, arcuisine and others. ( though not Mikasa). The line of higher quality table ware was introduced 10 or 15 years ago - unr the name if the firm' s owner Durand.

He is lovely Rose, a very elegant piece,  quite Egyptian in style....I would have bought hin as well. 
It is only postage costs that stop me getting them from eBay, they are heavy. 
But I do like glass cats and have many of them from all over the world.
Nice that he is so clearly marked.
