Gothic Raven and Black Cat Metal Sign Wall Decor Halloween Welcome Sign

The kitten takes a swipe.

The picture is built as a window. Purple velvet curtains hang at the sides, a gilded arch crosses the top, and the greeting sits inside it in pale violet letters with two small carved figures above. Below the arch a large black raven stands on a stack of old leather books with its beak open, and a black kitten in a purple pointed hat with a gold buckle and a bell on its collar reaches one paw up at it. A lit taper and a small grinning pumpkin sit at the base of the pile.

The gilt border comes printed with its chipped enamel and rust already in place. What looks like a heavy antique frame is flat ink on aluminium.

It is a seasonal piece that leans sweet rather than grim, so it works in a hallway, a child's room or a reading nook right through October. Prop it on a bookshelf against the spines instead of hanging it. A gift for someone with a black cat and a stack of paperbacks.
