Ok, so I saw this laughing buddha/hotei statue in a catalog once while looking at it with my girlfriend she really liked it. Her b-day is coming and I really want to get it, but we don't have this catalog anymore and I can't find the statue. I am hoping to find the name of the company that sends these catalogs out so I can call them or check their website and order it.
It was one of those sort of "yoga style" catalogs, not just yoga stuff, but a lot of clothes and items for meditation, etc. It sort of looked like a coldwater creek catalog in layout. And it was a garden sculpture, so it included those kinds of things. Does anyone else get these? Do you know the names of some of these catalogs and maybe I can find it. Whoever gives me the name of the right one first gets the best answer (of course)
Thanks all!
If you live in a larger city, these kinds of statues are commonly found in Chinese curio stores. Sometimes you can find such statues in garden stores or even in antique shops.

Jerry Downs Photo Essays » A Walk with Buddha
Hi!
Want to go for a walk?
Hello my fine friends. Welcome to my old hometown. When I was back in Boulder, Colorado, where I lived for thirty years, I had the opportunity to see many of my dear friends. When I went to see my friend Cha Cha, we went for a walk with her new dog, Buddha. The blue swallow in the first picture is one of Cha’s metal garden sculptures. She is a multi-talented artist. Buddha has a talent for chasing, retrieving and eating pine cones.
We kicked pine cones down the road and met different dogs who all had to say hello. That’s Chelsea on the left. Further down the mountain road two Scottie dogs, Lassie and Coti ran circles around each other in their excitement to see the three of us.
