Cast Silver (Solid)
12 × 30 × 16 cm
Malaika is the Swahili word for "angel," a name that has graced East African song and poetry for generations as the purest expression of beauty, grace, and beloved presence. This mirror-polished silver version of the seated cat transforms the form entirely through its finish — where a dark patina speaks of antiquity and earth, this luminous surface catches and returns the light of whatever world surrounds it, the cat's characteristic stillness and self-possession now rendered in something closer to radiance. The name could not be more fitting: an angel, in most traditions, is neither fully of this world nor absent from it, but present at its edges, reflective, watchful, and impossibly poised.
