Real words from real people who took one home.
"I absolutely love this lucky cat statue based on my cat, Ollie! The artist captured him perfectly — from his head all the way down to his paws. The level of detail is incredible, and it truly looks like him, which made this piece feel extra special and personal."
"Absolutely LOVE this art! It came so quickly and is adorable in person, will be the perfect gift! :) thank you!!!"
"So cute! I love the little details and she really looks just like Frida!"
"Absolutely LOVE! Such a unique piece and fits perfectly in my home! Diana was super responsive and helpful with some shipping delays (due to the holidays). Definitely worth the wait!"
"I bought this for a 7-year old boy, who needs some luck in his life. This Lucky Cat was perfect for him. Thank you so much!"
I grew up in Guatemala and taught myself to paint — no art school, just years of not being able to put the brush down. A few years ago I moved to Barcelona, and somewhere in that mess of a new city I fell for the Maneki Neko: the little figurine that's supposed to bring luck.
Now I paint them one at a time from my studio here. I sign the bottom of every one. Some come out in three days, some argue with me for a week. None of them come out the same — which, honestly, is the whole point. I'd rather make you something that's only yours.
