• This bathing kitty is a Turkish Van, a breed that is known to like water, actually. According to legend, there were two white cats aboard Noah’s ark. After the flood, Noah lowered the gangplank, accidentally hitting the cats’ tails, which turned a fiery auburn color. The cats settled in the town of Van, where stories, songs and poems of the area mention the “swimming cats.” The word “Van” is written on the cat’s brush. Who’s that hiding beneath the cat’s tail? Could it be Osama Bin Laden? The mouse cowers beneath the brush. The interior of the Version One shows a swimming cat trying to catch some fish. Version Two features a mould variation.

• NOTE: Because Harmony Kingdom is handmade, individual box figurines may exhibit slight variations. While the artisans do their best to ensure that Harmony Kingdom boxes look seamless, many pieces do look like two-piece figurines.
  
• Harmony Kingdom’s artists often conceal a small motif on the box figurines they carve as a sort of “signature.” This identifies the piece as being their work and adds to the Secrets of the Kingdom. David Lawrence uses an acorn on most of his box figurines, and Peter Calvesbert uses a mouse. Many collectors enjoy searching for these small, hidden symbols of the artists.
