How astonishingly cute is that?
I can’t guess at how old it may be. When did Siamese cats become popular? I don’t know.
It particularly appeals to me because I’ve had a couple of Siamese cats. They weren’t the dark seal-point type of this ink well, they were the much paler lilac-point but they did have the same bright blue eyes.
Anyway, this is a delightful thing to have on one’s desk. The only thing that I don’t like is that when you open the ink well it looks like the cat has had a horrible and terminal accident.
Deb, this is quite delightful! I love it!
It has the sweetest expression!
If your Siamese Cats are capable of wondering; looking-on they may wonder:
“Ewww… Are you going to decapitate me next then dip that pen-thing into my neck too?!”
The effect would be enhanced by filling the ink-well with juicy blood-red ink.
Just kidding 🙂
This is an adorable piece. Thank you for sharing it with us.

You’re welcome!
Sadly, I no longer have Siamese cats. Just my very unreliable assistant who graces these pages from time to time.
