Edward Gorey Sterling Silver Stripey Cat is Footloose and Fancy Free With Free Black Velvet Gift Pouch Adapted from a drawing for A Story for Sara published in Amphigorey Too Cat Pin Measures: Approximately 1.5" long  x 1.25" tall (including tail) A truly unique figure in American art and illustration, Edward Gorey was born in Chicago in 1925 and died at the turn of the millennium. Defying stylistic description, he has been called an eccentric genius and an Edwardian enigma. He acknowledged his debt to the traditions of 19th century draughtsmen and novelists, as well as the surrealist movement in 20th century art and literature. His painstakingly executed, almost etched style is at once recognizable both for its graphic qualities and extraordinary imagery. His art synthesized a love of literature and a genius for the possibilities of pen and ink. This pendant was created using the lost wax method of casting and is hand finished. Each pin comes with a description and a pouch. Gorey's signature is on the back. Perfect for gift giving for yourself or others.   Purchase will be shipped once payment clears.
