In short: the Cat Wood Knob is a wood cabinet knob from the Brass Essence range, 70 mm — best for nursery and playroom drawers wanting a clearly recognizable sitting-cat silhouette.

Product Code: W-0024

The Cat Wood Knob shapes a sitting cat's silhouette — pointed ears, curved back, and a raised tail — in solid natural wood, at 70mm wide, one of the more instantly recognizable profiles in the fourteen-piece W-0024 animal series thanks to its distinctive ear and tail detail.

The pointed ears sit at the top of the silhouette and the tail curves upward at the back, giving the knob a clear sense of front and back — mount it so the cat appears to be sitting upright on the drawer front, which helps the shape read clearly rather than as an ambiguous blob at a glance.

Beach wood and walnut give the cat two different personalities: beach wood keeps it light and playful, while walnut gives the silhouette a bit more definition and contrast, particularly useful for making the ear and tail details stand out clearly against the drawer front.

The vendor specification for this particular animal in the series lists a brushed finish and a wood-plus-brass material note, differing slightly from the plain natural wood and brushed matt finish stated for most of the other animals in the W-0024 series — this may be a data entry variation in the catalogue rather than a genuine construction difference, and we'd recommend confirming with the vendor before treating it as materially different from its set-mates.

As part of the fourteen-piece set, the cat pairs naturally with the fox, lion, and dog knobs elsewhere in the series for a themed run of household-pet and woodland shapes across a set of drawers.

What is the Cat Wood Knob?

The Cat Wood Knob is a wood cabinet knob from the Brass Essence range. According to Janke hardness testing data for American black walnut, walnut measures roughly 1,010 lbf on the Janke hardness scale, the industry-standard test for a wood's resistance to denting, putting it comfortably in the range used for quality furniture and cabinetry, which is part of why wood is a genuinely practical choice for hardware that gets handled daily, not just a decorative one.

How should the cat knob be mounted so the shape reads correctly?

Mount it so the pointed ears sit at the top and the raised tail curves up at the back, giving the impression of a cat sitting upright on the drawer front — this orientation is what makes the silhouette instantly readable.

Is this knob's finish different from the other animals in the W-0024 series?

The vendor specification shows a slightly different finish note for this piece compared to most of the series — we've flagged this for verification rather than asserting a construction difference that isn't fully confirmed.

Which other animal knobs suit a household-pet themed set alongside the cat?

The fox, lion, and dog knobs from the same series work well together for a themed run of pet and woodland-animal shapes across a set of drawers.
