This statuette is a bronze reproduction of the Egyptian Cat, the lucky animal, symbol of grace.
The cat in ancient Egypt is a sacred animal, also famous as the divinity Bastet, the goddess in the form of a cat, protector of the family, of children, of women, dance and the sun.
It is an original gift idea for history and animal lovers.
The cat in ancient Egypt was known for its beauty and sacred symbolism, making it an iconic figure in Egyptian history. They were treated with great respect and, upon their death, families often mummified them to honor their spirit. Killing a cat, even accidentally, was punished severely, as it was believed that these animals had magical powers to ward off evil.
To keep your bronze cat figurine always shining, it is advisable to clean it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.

Die Lieferung kam super schnell, war jederzeit lückenlos verfolgbar. Alles war perfekt verpackt. Und die kleine Bronze entspricht genau der Abbildung im Shop. Sie ist wunderschön! Tolles Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis. Nun dient die Katze meinen Schülern als inspirierendes Vorbild für die Anfertigung einer eigenen Bastet Katze aus Speckstein.
Una preziosa riproduzione in Bronzo con una raffinata finitura. Bellissima.
Manifattura particolare e molto ben fatta

After returning from a trip to Italy I found that the small bronze cat I had purchased at the Herculaneum had gotten misplaced. I found the Museum shop online and ordered a replacement. It came quicker than I had expected and was perfect. It was exactly as I had remembered it with clear detail in the design. I could not be happier with my purchase. Thank you!
Un bronzetti piccolo ma veramente ben fatto!
