The Queen of Cats has her great honor in this capazo . Deified throughout the centuries and associated with mystery and the feminine universe, in Egypt the female cat goddess, called Bastet, protected people's happiness; while Cleopatra imitated the curved line of a cat's eyes. Even for Leonardo da Vinci it was “the most beautiful work of art.” In this capazo , the Queen of Cats has no posture that does not reflect elegance and magnetism. Introspective, sensitive, aristocratic and sharp, her ancestral mystery also bewitched the kaiser of fashion. Karl Lagerfeld, in impeccable black and white, hid behind his dark glasses hugging his famous cat Choupette, his heir by the way.

Hand-woven and gold-dyed straw Capazo . Velvet tassels with black tulle. The edge and its handles are crocheted with velvet wool. Cats with green eyes emerge from its handles. Hand-painted face with a hairstyle in haute couture fabric. The crown is decorated with golden pearls. Her neck has an animal print silk flower made petal by petal. The composition incorporates a velvet cat hand-embroidered with gold thread, touches of green rooster feathers and a fox tail crocheted in gold thread. It has a mink fur pompom, metallic gold panthers and this queen's neck ends with feathers in shades ranging from black to iridescent green.

Each capazo is delivered in a bag that must be used for storage after each use. This helps protect it from possible damage and keep it in good condition. It is important to avoid exposing the capazo to the sun when not in use. Direct sunlight can cause discoloration and deterioration of the material.

It should not be submerged in water or come into contact with rain. It is also important not to overload it, since it is a delicate piece. The designer Isabel Margarita Vial will assist you personally if your capazo needs to be checked or restored indefinitely. To do this you can write to us through our contact form.
