Tecta Cat is a sculpture designed by Dominik Kirgus and produced by the Tecta brand. Made entirely of black lacquered wood, it has yellow eyes.

Beyond its decorative function, Karlchen - the cat's real name - plays an important role in the history of the Tecta company. It represents a kind of mascot, but goes far beyond this simple role, becoming an icon that embodies the values and innovative spirit of the company.

With its arched posture and piercing gaze, the Tecta Cat almost seems to emerge from the pages of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales, bringing with it an aura of mystery and intrigue. Through Karlchen, Tecta manages to combine tradition and modernity, conveying a sense of continuity with the past while remaining firmly rooted in the present. This figurine thus becomes not only a design object but a tangible symbol of the company's identity and philosophy.
