Minnaloushe Luna Cat Necklace

In 1890, W.B. Yeats wrote a poem about a cat staring at the moon and changing in ways no one could fully understand. Occultists and goths have been relating to it ever since.

The Minnaloushe Luna Cat Necklace pulls directly from Yeats' "The Cat and the Moon," a work steeped in Irish mysticism, the occult preoccupations of the fin de siècle, and the quietly unnerving idea that some creatures exist slightly outside of time. Minnaloushe, the cat in question, belonged to Maud Gonne, the revolutionary who consumed a significant portion of Yeats' soul. The necklace wears that lineage well, sitting naturally in the space between dark aesthetic jewellery, literary reference, and the long tradition of the black cat as symbol of the unknowable. If your shelves hold Yeats next to your tarot deck, this is already yours.

Pendant necklace with lunar cat design. Chain included. Sized for everyday wear with enough detail to reward a closer look.
