Greyhound Dog Collar Faraja Turquoise
The Faraja Turquoise is a tribute to traditional Kenyan craftsmanship. Specifically designed for the unique anatomy of sighthounds, this collar combines striking aesthetics with sustainable materials. Each piece is entirely handmade, meaning you possess a unique piece of jewelry for your dog that is unlike any other.
Authentic Craftsmanship and Materials
This collar distinguishes itself through the use of high-quality local raw materials and artisanal techniques:
Vegetable-Tanned Leather: Both the robust exterior and the soft goat leather lining are vegetable-tanned in Kenya. This process is more environmentally friendly and results in leather that remains supple and comfortable against a sighthound's sensitive skin.
Hand-Stitched Glass Beads: The collar is richly decorated with 100% glass beads in vibrant turquoise tones. These beads are sewn on by hand for superior durability, ensuring the decoration withstands daily wear.
Recycled Brass: The buckle and D-ring are cast from recycled brass by local artisans. This gives the collar an authentic, robust look and contributes to circular production.
Unique Detail: Each collar comes with a matching beaded bone-shaped charm. This charm is detachable and can also be used as a unique keychain.
Ergonomics for the Greyhound
Greyhounds have slender necks and narrow heads, which often means a standard collar is insufficient. The Faraja model is wide-cut to distribute pressure evenly across the neck and windpipe. This prevents irritation and ensures the dog cannot easily slip out of the collar, significantly increasing safety during walks.
