A Cat, a Story, and the Glow of Cloisonné

This handmade enamel cat brooch, crafted by Japanese cloisonné artist Keiko Sera, carries a quiet yet captivating charm.
With soft gray-beige fur and deep green eyes, the delicate silver wire outlines and layered enamel glazes capture the lifelike presence of a cat—calm, graceful, and timeless.
Wearing this piece is like carrying a little story with you, adding a subtle touch of poetry to your everyday style.

The Art of Japanese Cloisonné (Shippo)

Created with the traditional “yūsen shippo” (wired cloisonné) technique:

• Fine silver wires outline each detail.

• Vibrant enamel glaze is filled within, then fired and polished.

• The result is a shimmering surface with depth, transparency, and vivid color.

The craftsmanship brings out the cat’s fur texture and glowing eyes, making each brooch truly one of a kind.
