Vintage 18K Cat Brooch w/ Light Pink Quartz Head, Amazonite Body, and Ruby Eyes

Crafted in 18k yellow gold, this one-of-a-kind cat brooch is built around an oval amazonite cabochon body, its with its vivid blue-green color anchoring the whole design. The face is formed from a light pink quartz cabochon, a smooth, glassy base that softens and contrasts the saturated body, while round ruby cabochons set as the eyes and nose deliver a sharp pop of red against the paler stone. The construction is the standout feature: the gold is wrapped around and over the quartz after setting, giving the head a distinctive floating effect that you truly rarely see.

The ears, paws, and curled tail are modeled in textured Florentine-finish yellow gold, and the big round domed feet lend the piece a cartoonish, playful character that reads as both vintage and unusual. The curled tail on the reverse is stamped 750 and CB, confirming the 18k gold and the maker's mark. This pin is ideal for adding a playful focal point to a blazer lapel, a coat, or a dress, where the domed gold and amazonite body can catch the light. Pair it with neutral or solid-color fabrics in cream, navy, or charcoal so the vivid blue-green body and ruby accents stand out. The pin is a strong mix of playfulness, a vintage feel, and a pop of color that makes it an easy conversation starter and adds character.
