About FiFi Txakur Lepokoa
Hau ez da txakur lepokoa soilik, lepoko desmuntagarria duen txakur lepokoa da. Frida kalitatezko larrua erabiltzen ari da letoizko solidoarekin. Pieza diseinatzerakoan, lepokoa lotzeko modu seguru erraz bat hartu behar zuen kontuan txakurra lepokoa daraman bitartean. Lepoak ere luxuzko sentimendua izan behar zuen lepokoa gabe. Diseinu honekin, lepoko desmuntagarria, jabeak nahi duenean apaindu dezake bere txakurra.

- Unique Properties
- This is not only a Dog Collar, it is a Dog Collar with a detachable necklace.
Frida is using a very nice quality leather with solid brass buckle, D ring and two smaller D rings rivets with a swivel head.
When designing this piece she had to consider a simple secure way of attaching the necklace while the dog is wearing the collar. The collar also had to have a luxurious feel without the necklace. - Dimensions & Packaging

- Production Technology
- I am using a very nice quality leather with solid brass buckle, D ring and two smaller D rings rivets with a swivel head.
The necklace is attached with to the collar with a toggle bar in brass that is connected to a solid copper chain.
From the chain hangs solid brass beads, turquoise, aventurine, chrysocolla, garnet, glass beads and swarovski.
When designing this piece I had to consider a simple secure way of attaching the necklace while the dog is wearing the collar. The collar also had to have a luxurious feel without the necklace. - Design Challenge
- What I had to think about in this project was creating a high quality dog collar that looks good on its own. Then a necklace that was easy for the dog owner to attach, and sat on securely while the dog moves around.
- Research
- From having created both necklaces and collars for dogs since 2007, I have had many discussions over the years about quality and preferences, with the people who know best, the dog owners.
- Inspiration
- I have for many years been making necklaces for dogs, and it makes me so happy to see how comfortable most dogs are in a necklace. I have also been making dog collars.
It has always bothered me that the collar has to come off when the necklace goes on. Most dog owners like to keep the collar on, always. With this design, a detachable necklace, the owner can adorn their dog when they wish. - Project Duration
- The initial idea for this project started in March 2016, the finished product was completed by 27th of September 2018.
- Operation Flow
- The dog is able to wear his collar at all times. When the time comes for a special occasion the owner can easily attach the necklace on the collar.
