Borzoi Russian Wolfhound Dog Breed Jewelry

I don't know how much longer I can hold out before I simply have to add a Borzoi to our family. The more I read about them, the more I want one. The more I look at dog jewelry like this Borzoi pin, the more irresistable they are.

This is an absolutely gorgeous handcrafted tri color Borzoi (Russian Wolfhound) dog breed pin. These handmade dog breed pins (brooches) are like no other. Entirely made by hand by an American artist. First a hand carved sculpture is created which is then used to create a mould. Cast in resin, then hand air brush painted. They are then given a protective coating of lacquer so you can enjoy this dog breed jewelry for many years. Every effort is made to adhere to AKC and UKC dog breed standards.

Frankly, these dog pins are amazing works of dog art. Notice the bone structure and musculature of the dog. I've tried to show the sculptural details in the photos of this dog breed pin. In addition to being a perfect gift for a Borzoi dog lover, this would make a fabulous jewelry gift for someone who loves the Art Deco or Art Nouvou periods of history and decor.

Swiss Mountain Dog Jewelry Pin and Necklace

Now this is an amazing Greater Swiss Mountain Dog necklace. Wonderful details and entirely handmade. Hand sculptured and hand painted pin by a Wisconsin artistf. I've known a few Swissies and this is delightful. Actually this Swissy dog pendant is removable and can be worn as a pin. I handcrafted this dog breed necklace using lots of big beautiful black Obsidian, all hand knotted on black German silk. The necklace's sterling silver extender chain is accented with a pretty Black Onyx puffy heart. A very elegant, big, bold necklace, just like these marvelous Swissy dogs.

Note: I've used a pin adapter to use this pin as a pendant. You can easily remove the pendant to wear as a pin and in fact, you could attach any of your own pins to this necklace, too. Very versatile dog breed jewelry.
