Vintage Metlox Style Cat Cookie Jar Yellow Hat Blue Eyes MCM 1960s Ceramic

Charming vintage ceramic cat cookie jar featuring a whimsical cream-colored kitty with bright turquoise-blue eyes, pink ears and nose, painted whiskers, and a pale yellow bow tie. The removable lid is designed as a textured yellow straw hat topped with a white and pink flower.  This adorable mid-century piece is believed to date from approximately the 1960s and is attributed to the Metlox/Poppytrail style of California pottery. No clearly readable maker’s mark is visible on the base, so maker attribution is not guaranteed.  Measures approximately 8½–9 inches tall with lid and about 7 inches wide. Please review all photos for measurements and condition.  Vintage pre-owned condition with light age-related surface wear consistent with age. Lid is present and fits as shown. No obvious major cracks or repairs are visible in the photographs. Please inspect photos carefully as they are part of the description.
