It is the coat the wildcat wore before cats moved in with us, and it is still the most common coat on Britain's cats: the M on the forehead, the stripes down the ribs, the rings on the tail. The name comes from a striped silk once woven in Baghdad, which tells you how long people have admired the pattern. This one is sat the way every cat sits when it wants something, upright, front paws together, tail curled round, eyes on you. This handcrafted \u003cb\u003erelief artwork\u003c\/b\u003e captures the whole cat in \u003cb\u003eraised 3D\u003c\/b\u003e, so the stripes, the raised whiskers and the fold of the tail all hold real shadow instead of sitting flat on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy it is special:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSculpted in 3D Relief:\u003c\/b\u003e This is not a flat print. The artwork is sculpted in \u003cb\u003eraised relief\u003c\/b\u003e, following the stripes across the chest and flanks, the whiskers standing off the panel and the curl of the tail round the paws. The texture catches the light and changes as you move past it, which is what makes the coat read as fur rather than a pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHand-Gilded Finish:\u003c\/b\u003e We hand-finish every piece in \u003cb\u003emetallic leaf\u003c\/b\u003e to create a sharp, shimmering contrast against the deep black background. Because the leaf is laid by hand in sheets, each piece carries fine seams and slight variation in the metal. That is the signature of a gilded finish rather than a machine-printed one, and it means no two pieces are identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGold effect:\u003c\/b\u003e Warm and rich, and on this design it is every \u003cb\u003eginger tabby\u003c\/b\u003e you have ever met, since every ginger cat is a tabby underneath.
