Washing Up
Good Morning,
Which statue, or decorative item or fixture is most unusual in your kitchen that friends, visitors and family always comment on ?
*** I have a Caganer ( www.caganer.com ) which is an artisanal figurine which originated in Catalonia, in northeast Spain. The statue was given to us as a Christmas gift, by a well known Chef who is also a long standing client of mine.
These figurines, imitate political leaders, actors, male and female and animal species. They depict, a someone or a creature with their underwear pulled down -- doing their toilet business discreetly. They are meant to bring luck to the owner ... and they are commonly placed near logs or Christmas trees in Catalan homes.
It is quite a conversational piece ... It is on my lamp table by my handcrafted wooden sofa bench ( near wood ) ... he is quite funny !
Happy Holidays,
Margi.
