The new lineup of luxury goods draws inspiration from Japan’s manekineko “beckoning cat” figurines. 

“Good riddance to 2020” seems to be the general consensus for many folks around the world as we roll into the new year. When even the 2020 kanji of the year ties into the challenges of the ongoing pandemic, you know it’s high time to move onward and upward–and what better way to usher in some freshly needed luck than with the help of some feline friends specifically designed for that purpose.

Italian luxury goods company Furla recently launched a new collection of merchandise in Japan inspired by the Japanese manekineko, also known as a “beckoning cat” or “lucky cat” in English. These cat figurines are often found at the entrances of stores and restaurants with their outstretched paws bobbing up and down in order to wave the luck inside.
