YES, IT REALLY IS SOAP
Gold Cat uses vegetable glycerine soap to create its hand-molded and hand-carved figurines inspired by traditional 19th and early 20th century designs. The soap is biodegradable and does not contain any animal ingredients. It moisturizes your skin and rinses clean.

VICTORIAN DESIGN
The Victorian era lasted during the reign of Queen Victoria who ruled Great Britain from 1837 to 1901 or most of the ninteenth century. The proprietor of Gold Cat first encountered Victorian era molds in the early 1950's when she visited the workshop of one of the last mold makers in this tradition. The early mold making companies created hundreds of designs in molds for ice cream. Gold Cat used the molds to make colorful creations in soap.

GOLD CAT DESIGNS
Since Gold Cat's creator learned the process of making new master molds from using Victorian molds, designs in these web pages carry on the Victorian style. The original designs have been adapted for use as soap while maintaining their authenticity as much as possible. |
