9 Carat Gold 

Loyal, intuitive, steadfast, and heroic.

The faithful hound dog can be found depicted on medieval tiles, allegorical tapestries and many symbolic sculptures. This piece was influenced by the 19th-century characterful figurines produced by the Staffordshire potteries.

Starting life as a hand-drawn sketch, this elegant hound sits proudly 'sphinx style' and has been carefully observed with sculpted muzzle, minute details of paw pads, sweeping tail and aloof expression.

Drawing inspiration from the Georgian era’s fascination with animals and symbolism, the locket is designed to house treasured mementos, a loved ones hair, private love note or secret code.

The chain sits under the collar bone so is visible when worn with a shirt or can be layered with longer pendants and chains
