This joyful little pup looks as though it has just bounded in from some sunlit afternoon, tail up, ears alert, eager for whatever adventure comes next. Covered in a bright constellation of rose cut diamonds, it carries that irresistible mix of charm and elegance that mid-century jewelers loved to give their figural pieces. The ruby eye adds just the right spark of personality, a tiny flash of warmth that makes the dog feel delightfully alive, as if it knows something wonderful and intends to share it with you.

Handcrafted in the 1950s, this brooch is made in 9 karat gold with the diamonds set in silver. It is marked 375 for the gold and 925 for the sterling silver. Set with eighty eight rose cut diamonds and one cabochon ruby, it measures 32.3 millimeters from the tip of the tail to the front of the nose and stands 30 millimeters high. The piece weighs 4.1 grams. The diamonds are set into silver, while the legs, tail, muzzle edge, and frame are done in gold, creating a lovely contrast that enhances the sparkle.

There is something timeless in a jewel that radiates this much happiness. Whether perched on a lapel, coat, or sweater, this bright eyed little companion brings an instant lift to the day and a touch of mid-century magic to every outfit.
