This 'Black and White Cat' by Independent Artisans is a beautiful ceramic cat pendant necklace. Designed and painted by hand by Napat Chotpruekchookul, the mischievous cat is crafted from kaolin clay. The necklace adorns the wearer on an adjustable cotton cord, and the piece is a beautiful blend of tradition and innovation.
Born in 1966 in Lampang province, Northern Thailand, this artisan grew up surrounded by the region’s celebrated ceramic traditions. After earning a master’s degree in environmental management, she left her research career to revive her family’s struggling workshop. Determined to compete with mass production, she combined modern technology with traditional methods, developing a distinctive line of ceramic jewelry. Since 1997, she has designed and handcrafted each piece from hand-mixed kaolin clay, painting and glazing motifs that celebrate artistry and precision. Her husband supports sales and research, while a team of eight local technicians carry forward her eco-friendly vision. Certified “Eco-Friendly Made” by Thailand’s Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, her workshop prioritizes both quality and sustainability. For her, happiness in the workplace leads to beauty in design, and each unique piece reflects a commitment to heritage, innovation, and environmental care.
This necklace is crafted from ceramic and cotton cord. It features a sliding knot that is adjustable between 17 and 31.5 inches long. The pendant measures 2.8 inches L x 1.5 inches W.
