Yee Haw Cowgirl Bracelet Valentine Gift

For Love of a Dog Jewelry is pleased to offer this handcrafted Quarterhorse horse breed bracelet. This horse lover bracelet combines classic blue and silver with Sodalite gemstone beads and sterling silver. Multiple charm dangles include: royal blue Lapis Lazuli gemstone heart, sterling silver horse shoe for luck and and a wonderful bay Quarterhorse horse charm.

These horse charms are entirely made by hand by an American artist. First a hand carved sculpture is created which is then used to create a mould. The horse charm is then hand cast in resin and air brush painted. They are then given a protective coating of lacquer so you can enjoy this horse breed jewelry for many years. Every effort is made to adhere to Quarterhorse breed standards. Frankly, they are amazing works of equine art. A beautiful fashion statement or gift for any equestrian, cowgirl or trail rider.

Blue Ribbon Cat, Dog or Horse Lover Necklace

I don't know about you, but in my heart of hearts, each and every one of my dogs, cats, and horses deserves a blue ribbon. And they're definitely First Place in my heart. Here's a necklace for all of you who feel the same way.

This handcrafted necklace features a handmade porcelain pendant charm that is a blue ribbon marked first place in yellow. Hand sculpted by a Michigan porcelain ceramics artist and just darling. I've combined it with gorgeous medium royal blue Lapis Lazuli and yellow Jade gemstone beads. All are hand wire wrapped with oxidized silver jeweler's wire. This handcrafted blue ribbon necklace is perfect jewelry for anyone who shows their dog, cat or horse or simply adores their special pet. It would also make a fabulous gift for any hard working animal rescue volunteer.

This is a pet lover necklace that gets Tucker's woof of approval.
