'A Cat' by Louis Wain Pocket Square

Artwork: 'A Cat in Gothic’

Author: Louis Wain

A pocket square made from from 100% silk, which gives the colors exceptional vibrancy while adding depth and a subtle sheen to the pattern. As with all our pocket squares, the edges are hand-rolled by our seamstresses locally in Katowice.

The motif comes from the later period of Louis Wain’s work, the British illustrator best known for his depictions of cats. Between 1925 and 1939, his style took on a more decorative, almost “Gothic” character, with pronounced linework, symmetry, and richly ornamental backgrounds.
