A black cat sits upright on an open book, tail curled round and braided at the tip. It wears a gold filigree crown and a matching breastplate collar with an amber stone set at the throat. One eye is pale blue, the other burnt orange. The chest fur is worked in long overlapping strands. Behind it stands a grey stone slab, and around the whole disc runs a copper scroll border of vines and curls.
The look is printed to imitate carved stone and cast metal — deep shade behind the ears, a copper glint along each vine. On the wall it is one smooth flat panel with pre-drilled holes.
Suits a reading corner, a shelf kept for a familiar, or the wall above a stack of grimoires. The crown gives it more dignity than the usual Halloween cat, so it stays up all year. A safe gift for anyone whose black cat rules the house, and a good excuse to finally hang something above the desk.

The Black Cat leads the design as an archetype of mystery, independence and familiar lore. Other gothic or seasonal details build atmosphere around that central character.
