A wonderful gift for the cat-loving Freddie Mercury aficionado in your life, this splendid decoration honours the Queen front man and his inimitable sense of style. The tactile black velvet cat is resplendent with his golden whiskers and oversized red bow, a masterclass in more-is-more dressing. Hang from the Christmas tree for a festive feline touch, or keep on display all year round as a tribute to Freddie.
Freddie Mercury was a fan of felines himself, keeping ten cats over his lifetime – Queen even released a song named for his last cat, Delilah.
The decoration is made by St. Nicolas, a small London-based brand dedicated to designing original, interesting and meaningful keepsakes. The company has worked with a family-run business in northern India since 1999, creating Fair Trade decorations using the ancient zardozi embroidery technique.
