Cat with glasses brooch in brown enamel, pink glasses and amber rhinestones
This figural brooch is a sitting cat with a clear personality: dark-brown head, beige-and-brown body, slightly tucked-in front paws and a long tabby-striped tail that curls forward. The face is the focal point, with pink-coral enamel glasses, wide white eyes with black pupils that read as gently surprised, a small triangular nose and three pairs of black whiskers. A gold-tone collar with three amber rhinestones sits at the neck, and three more amber stones decorate the flank. The piece is finished in yellow gold-tone metal with baked enamel, set on a hidden two-disc magnetic system that lets the brooch sit on any fabric without leaving a pinhole.

Why glasses change a cat brooch entirely
Plain cat brooches share a problem: they all look like each other. Adding a pair of glasses turns a generic feline into a character, and the pink-coral enamel here pulls the eye to the face before the rest of the body. The wide-eyed expression keeps the piece warm without going into cartoon territory, and the amber rhinestones tie the head and the flank together with a single warm-tone accent. The magnetic fastening matters more than usual here because the brooch is detail-heavy and would be a real shame to anchor with a coarse pin. See our wider no-pin magnetic brooches for the same fastening on other characters.
Where the bookish cat fits in the wardrobe
On a neutral wool coat lapel, the warm brown body reads as a tonal anchor and the pink glasses become the single bright note. On a chunky knit jumper, the brooch holds attention without the rest of the outfit competing. On a canvas tote it works as a personality marker, and on a denim jacket it picks up the casual storytelling mood that cat-themed pieces do best. Pair it with smaller pieces from our wider cat brooch collection for a coordinated feline lapel scene.
Materials, sizing and care
Body in gold-tone metal with baked enamel for the brown body, the pink glasses, the white eyes and the tabby stripes. The amber rhinestones are mounted in claw settings rather than glued, so they hold over time. Two-piece set: the decorative cat and a small openwork magnetic disc placed behind the fabric. Wipe the front with a dry microfibre cloth, store flat, keep perfume sprays and pool water off the enamel.

Frequently asked questions
Are the glasses raised or printed flat?
Raised. The pink-coral enamel forms the glasses frame in slight relief on top of the face, so the glasses keep their depth even after long wear.
Will the magnet hold on a thick knit?
Yes. The two rare-earth discs are sized for chunky knits and wool coats without slipping, and remain gentle enough for a silk blouse.
Does it work as a gift for a cat lover?
Yes. The bookish-cat silhouette with pink glasses is a clear character piece, packaged in a jewellery pouch ready to gift for cat lovers or readers.
