Maomao Cat-Ear Peeking Enamel Pin – The Apothecary Diaries

Her name reads "cat cat", and she does stare at people like a cat that has just found something interesting to poison. This Maomao cat ear pin turns that into a tiny face peeking over the edge of your jacket pocket.

Maomao peeking with cat ears

The pin shows only the top of Maomao's head: a straight fringe in shades of teal, two pointed cat ears, a blue bow and big blue eyes above a smug little cat mouth. Her hands rest on the bottom edge as if she were hanging over a wall, which is how she usually listens in on rear palace gossip. Each colour sits in its own cell of a gold-tone metal outline.

On a lapel, a bag or a lanyard

Pin it so she peeks over a pocket flap, the edge of a tote or the top of a lanyard. She pairs well with the Jinshi & Maomao head pat pin from the same line, and with the Maomao peony portrait if you want two moods side by side. A small gift that fits in a card for the friend who calls Maomao a cat.
