Description
This wooden heart keeper decoration is made for anyone who shares their home with a cat, and it says so in handwritten black lettering across the lid: 'a house is not a home without a cat'. Beneath the words, a single flowing line draws a contented cat with its eyes closed and a small red heart at its chest, its tail curling round into the line it sits on. The lid is white, and when you lift it away the base inside is finished in soft gold, a warm contrast against the plain white outside. It measures 8cm tall, 6.5cm wide and 4cm deep, small enough to sit in the palm of your hand.
On a bedside table or a dressing table it makes a handy home for a ring, a pair of earrings or a spare key, and on a desk or a hallway shelf it keeps the little things that otherwise go missing. It is a thoughtful gift for a cat lover or any pet lover, whether that is a friend who has just welcomed a kitten or someone whose cat has long ruled the house. Because it is so small, it tucks neatly into a parcel alongside a card.
The keeper is made of wood in two parts, a heart-shaped base and a lid that lifts straight off, so there are no hinges or clasps to work loose. It rests flat, so it needs no stand and no wall. To keep it looking fresh, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water. We like to tuck a folded note or a small piece of jewellery inside before wrapping, so the gift carries a second surprise when the lid comes off.
