Description

A fabulous light-colored version of the tromp l’oeil Tabby cat umbrella stand designed by Piero Fornasetti. Originally designed in the 1950s, this piece is from a more recent, very limited production in 2008 and was the fifth example to be produced that year. The wonderful graphics and subtle colourings of this piece make it a must-have item for the hallway…meow! (Signed and numbered in the bottom right and includes the original drip-tray).
