Hairball Jewelry

Okay, so it hasn’t actually been digested by a cat, but the custom cat Hairball jewelry by Moderncat blogger and jewelry designer Heidi Abrahamson, is actually made from the fur of a feline.

The one-of-a-kind pieces where made when Kate Benjamin (shown modeling the jewelry above) gave several cats a good grooming (she recommends the Furminator) and then hand-rolled each ball of cat fur into a tight bead. By rolling the loose fur between her palms, the strands become felted together, forming a solid little bead. Her friend Heidi then added her silversmithing skills by attaching jewelry findings to the furballs and then mounting them on earrings, ring shanks and chains.
