Maneki Neko - Seto, Tokai Company
招き猫 - 東海工芸

In the city of Seto, Aichi Prefecture, Tokai Kogei (Kogei means arts and crafts) established itself by 1961. It has expanded its materials to include glass and cloth (1967), metal (1975), and resin (1983).  One of their most popular/familiar lines is called Neko Nishiki (Cat Brocade) and feature pudgy, wide-faced cats with closed eyes and flowered bibs. I have some of these in resin, often decorated with flowers, that were produced in China. I am not sure whether those are created for Tokai or are just copies.
