Luxury eyewear for cats
Catelier is for people who want a cat accessory that feels intentional: elegant enough to gift, carefully finished enough to keep, and distinctive enough to make the portrait.
First drop
Frame selection
Selecting a frame does not place an order. It helps us understand demand before we open small-batch ordering and reach out when the first pieces are ready.

The first Catelier frames are designed around quality acrylic, crisp profiles, polished edges, and small construction details that make the product feel considered in the hand.
Made in the UK from selected Hindleys cast acrylics, with local-first manufacturing, quality control, and hand-finished craft at the centre.
Every edge, curve, connector and strap detail is refined with the kind of attention that makes a small piece feel properly made.
Frame width, bridge clearance, lens opening, and strap position are considered around whiskers, ears, and feline face shape.
Frames and lenses
The first release will keep frame and lens pairings simple, so each style feels deliberate and consistent. Custom combinations can follow once we know where interest is strongest.
Optical and minimal
A barely-there lens look for cats where the frame shape and acrylic colour should do the talking.
Amber, smoke, blush, or olive
Soft colour washes designed to match the frame palette while keeping the overall expression refined.
Champagne or smoke flash
A more editorial finish for high-impact portraits, used sparingly so the frame still feels elegant.
Material, edge finish, lens treatment, strap hardware, fit geometry and packaging are all developed together before a frame ever reaches the camera.
Material
Hindleys cast acrylics give the frames colour, clarity, and a more optical-accessory feel than ordinary novelty plastic. Tortoiseshell, champagne, smoke, blush, and olive finishes are selected for richness and photographability.
Finish
The silhouette is precision cut, then the edges are refined so the frame catches light cleanly. The aim is a smooth, glossy edge that looks deliberate in close-up.
Lenses
Clear, lightly tinted, and mirrored lens finishes are being explored alongside each frame colour. The finish changes the expression of the piece while staying mindful of weight, visibility, and brief supervised wear.
Attachment
Rounded side connectors hold the soft strap without making the side profile look like an afterthought. The attachment is designed to sit clear of the ears while still feeling like an eyewear detail.
Fit
Frame width, bridge clearance, lens opening, and strap position are considered around whiskers, ears, nose bridge, and eye area. Some cats will tolerate accessories and some will not, so wear should always be brief and supervised.
What arrives
The launch set is planned to arrive in considered packaging with a slim leather case, soft adjustable strap and a small microfibre cleaning cloth for keeping the acrylic and lenses clear between supervised wears.
Launch list
Join the launch list to register interest in the frames you would most like to see first. When small-batch ordering opens, we will contact early backers directly.
Designed for the kind of portrait that feels considered, polished, and unmistakably theirs.
Your interest helps shape the first small batches, so production can grow carefully rather than through open pre-orders.
