The Chihuahua Pendant — Tiny Companion Silhouette Necklace
Six pounds of pure loyalty, oversized satellite ears, and the courage of a lion—a Chihuahua picks one favorite human on earth and guards her lap like a royal throne.
Designed by founder Mia Vellamere and cut to order in our Salado, Texas studio, The Chihuahua Pendant shapes that dainty apple-head silhouette and perky ears in sturdy 1.3 mm (16-gauge) jeweler’s bronze. Tumbled smooth for 8 hours and dipped in wet-glass 14k gold brilliance, it arrives on a custom-engraved blonde maple wood card.
