This beautifully and unique Battersea Cat Hanging Decoration is handmade in India using the traditional method of zardozi embroidery. This exclusive Battersea design features an embroidered cat within a blue star. Perfect for hanging around the home, and showing your support for the dogs and cats in our care.

Zari – meaning gold – embroidery originated in Persia and reached India in the 12th century. This is a highly skilled technique that traditionally used gold wires and jewels to embellish courtly robes.

Today zardozi work is a rare and respected craft and is recognized as one of the ‘Ancient Handicrafts’ by the Government of India. The skill is handed down from generation to generation.

Size: 10cm diameter (excluding hanging loop).

All profits help us to provide love and expert care to the dogs and cats who need us.
