A beautiful brooch from the 1960s, the whimsical bow tie wearing pussy cat design is set in 14kt yellow gold with white gold whiskers and facial features.  It is set with a nice round brilliant cut diamond nose with marquise diamond eyes and 3 smaller round diamonds in its mouth.  The center stone weighs approx. 0.35 ct. and the total diamond weight for the piece is approx. 0.80 ct.  All of the diamonds are H-I color and VS2-SI1 clarity.  The pin is about 1" wide and is about 2 1/2" long.  There is a signature/maker's mark on the back but we are unable to figure out who it might be.
