Kati has always found beauty in
collectibles of distinction, from the simplest to the richest and
most ornate.
Kati's family emigrated to Canada from Budapest, Hungary, in the
late fifties. Her mother, a well-known designer and artist in both
Europe and Canada, encouraged Kati, even at a young age, to explore
her artistic side. The talent of this British Columbia artist has
spanned many arts and crafts, with their roots in several cultures.
In addition to being an accomplished pianist, she sang professionally
with a folk group, has been involved in dance and majored in theatre
arts at university. Although her Master's Degree and her career
are in Education, her heart is with her artistic endeavours.
Several years ago, Kati turned her talents to floral design, starting
her own company. Her overwhelming success with Victorian Florals
motivated her to further study Victorian design and this, combined
with her European background, has largely influenced the design
of her Olde World Santas.
In her Santas, Kati has created authentic Canadian treasures, made
in the finest European tradition of hand craftsmanship.
