Handmade leather dog collar - Leopard design | NOIR HAWKHIDE

Hand-painted leopard leather dog collar

This handcrafted leather dog collar is made and hand-stitched from start to finish with great care for function, durability, and aesthetics. The collar is hand-painted with a leopard pattern, creating a bold and distinctive look where each individual collar is truly unique.

Each collar is hand-stitched using traditional saddle stitching (hand-stitched saddle stitch) with waxed thread, a method known for its strength and long lifespan compared to machine stitching. The stitching is not merely a visual element, but a deliberate prioritization of quality and durability.

Materials and craftsmanship

The collar is made from Hermann Oak® leather, a renowned American vegetable tanned leather that is considered among the finest leathers for handcrafted equipment. Hermann Oak is known for its consistent quality, strength, and ability to age beautifully. Over time, the leather becomes softer and more supple while maintaining its shape and durability, a leather that only becomes more beautiful with use.

The leopard pattern is painted by hand, which means that variations in pattern, contrast, and color depth are a natural part of the design and contribute to the collar’s unique character.

Details and fit

The collar is fitted with rings made from cast brass, which are both durable and well suited for everyday use. The brass develops a natural patina over time and harmonizes beautifully with the warm tones of the leather. The buckle-free construction creates a clean and balanced look while maintaining full functionality.

The images on the product page are model photos and show a collar in size M in the color Saddle Tan. The collar you receive is made to order and will therefore not be identical to the one shown. As each collar is handmade and hand-painted, small natural variations in the leather’s texture, the paint, and the finish should be expected. This is exactly what makes each collar unique.

This collar is made to order. The expected production time is 2-6 weeks, depending on the current order volume.
