Two of those old friends met us as newlyweds, saw us bring home babies, and watched them grow. They were family, and we were better for knowing them. Before we knew it, our house was loud with love again. This time, littermates, a brother and sister (Lou & Josey), and we all fell for them, head over heels. Devastatingly, we lost Lou this past Christmas. He lost his short battle to Pythium, a rare disease with no mercy. He was young, and we thought he'd still be sitting on the front porch when the kids were old enough to move out. To say our dogs are part of our family is an understatement. We travel together, play together, cuddle together, do nothing together, do everything together. Losing them requires you to reorient yourself to a new way of moving through your day without a lump of love at your feet, at your side, in your lap. Losing them means silence where there were gushy "I love yous" and ridiculous made-up nicknames. It means a soft pillow where there used to be soft paws and sleepy eyes that love you back with all their heart. It means your heart aches in a way you almost forgot it could. My kids don't offer jewelry advice often, but during those intense days of grief, my son came to my desk and said, "You should make something for Lou." I knew what he meant. Something visible, something tangible, something to keep his memory skin-close. Making a piece to honor our pets was on my list for years; I just hadn't figured out what. We went back and forth, but then it hit. A collar. A symbol of the sweetest belonging. With tags for finding your way home and a name called by the ones who love you most. The Collar Cuff is for all the Lous we've ever loved. This cuff measures approximately 1" tall. The SMALL cuff fits up to a 7" wrist.The MEDIUM cuff fits up to a 7.5" wrist. MIMOSA bracelets are slightly adjustable. The first time you put your new bracelet on, adjust it one time to a size that slips on and off comfortably. Our jewelry is solid cast metal, so repeated adjusting can cause it to break! To create the original version of this intricate piece, we used 3D-printed elements combined with our method of hand-carving wax. Click here to learn more about how we use the lost-wax casting method to create our pieces. Created in our South Louisiana studio, blending traditional carving with 3D-printed elements for a truly original design. Each piece varies slightly due to its handmade nature. *Note: Sterling Silver and 14K Gold prices may vary due to fluctuation in the gold and silver markets.
