The alley cat does her best to stay in the shadows. Contending with other night creatures, the feline also prefers to be neither seen nor heard. No wonder they call them "cat burglars!" The nocturnal nature of the notorious alley prowler is captured in beautiful detail by Balinese artisan Made Wardika. The circular pendant features a smiling crescent-moon, hand-carved from bone, with a cat of sterling silver sitting beside it. A pair of faceted garnet gemstones flank them, while the top and bottom are adorned with amethyst and peridot gems. The entire necklace receives a combination of oxidized and high-polish finishes for stunning visual contrast.

Crafted by hand of fine silver, a simple ring forms the pendant of this necklace, completed by a silver cat, a round shape, and an amethyst charm that dangle. Teaching young girls artisanal skills, Guatemala's Jalapa Girl Jewelsmiths presents this beautiful necklace. It adorns the wearer on brown leather cord, closing with a clasp of sterling silver. The artisan's fingerprint decorates the round charm.

Curling tendrils of sterling silver form the wings of a butterfly in this beautiful pendant necklace from Balinese artisan Diah Arini. The artisan sets the pendant with a faceted oval blue topaz weighing over two carats as well as two petite cabochons of amethyst. The pendant centers a classic sterling snake chain.
