Pangur Bawn, my cat, and I both
Set our minds full on our work
His calling is to hunt mice
Mine is to seek out learning

Thus an unknown 9th century monk took a break from his manuscripts to pay tribute to his beloved cat, in poetry and illustration. In the style of a manuscript illumination, knotwork enhances the form of this playful sterling silver feline. With red garnet or green peridot stones. 3/4" pendant on 18" chain, with matching earrings measuring 3/4". Made in USA. A GaelSong Exclusive!

Did not last

Alas, the necklace supporting Pangur did not last. After two years, the chain broke one day when I was putting it on. It's beautiful, but fragile.

9th Century Cat Pendant

While this is a charming design, the pendant is so tiny! I bought it at least 10 years ago but have worn it only twice due to its miniature size. Guess I'll give it to my young granddaughter as it's more in keeping with her small stature. Please list the measurements of your jewelry items as they tend to be smaller than they appear in your photos.

Beautiful piece!

Chain could be a bit longer to allow it to pass over the wearer's head. That said, my wife is quite taken by this beautiful birthday present!

Beautiful necklace

I'm a cat lover, long familiar with the Samuel Barber setting of "The Monk and His Cat". I'm so glad to have a depiction of Pangur to wear! I even had a white cat named Pangur years ago. It's a reminder to enjoy my interests and skills and not to interfere with those of others.

Matches the cat earrings

I now have the matching set. I've received many compliments, and I just love them.

Just right for cat lovers

I'm a cat lover and these remind me of all the cats I have had over the years and at the present time.

Great Gift

This pendant was a Mother's Day present for my daughter. She loves the combination of Gaelic and a cat. It was the perfect size.

Pretty and intriguing

Beautiful design with the look and feel of the medieval illuminated manuscripts. Would be even better without the gem stone. Downside-the miniature lobster claw clasp is more difficult to operate than the less expensive spring ring. Had my jeweler replace it.
