This ¾” thick 49ers is hand screen printed on the front with a short description on the back. It is an accessory of an eight-piece series called California Gold Rush Series, created by Cat’s Meow founder, Faline Jones, in her seventeenth year of business. This series was introduced on January 1, 1999 and retired on December 31, 2003.
Within a two-year period, more than 90,000 people made their way to California in search of gold. Between 1848 and 1854, over 300,000 people moved to California for the gold rush, earning them the nickname "49ers".
Look for our trademark black cat, Casper, on every Cat’s Meow. Handcrafted in our Wooster, Ohio workshop.
There are a limited number of this piece available, which is reflected in the price. With your purchase of this building, Faline will donate 10% to Amani Ya Juu, a fair-trade sewing and training program for marginalized women throughout Africa.
