Amboseli Beaded Leather Collar

Amboseli Collar is a hand made Kenyan beaded dog collar that has a traditional Masai design. The collar is made of soft veg tanned cowhide leather and is hand sewn by a women's cooperative in the Masai. It is available in five sizes. The ring, buckle and rivets are solid re-cycled brass, the beads are made of Czech glass and each collar comes with a beaded doggy bone.The collar is stitched the whole way through with Japanese nylon fishing thread ensuring it will never come apart. 

Width depends on size: Miniature: 2 cm 3/4 inch Small: 2.5 cm 1 inch Medium: 3 cm 1.2 inches Large: 4 cm 1.5 inches XL 4 cm 1.5 inches. MEASUREMENTS ARE TAKEN FROM THE FIRST TO THE LAST OF 5 HOLES AND WE MEASURE THE COLLAR FROM WHERE THE BUCKLE JOINS THE LEATHER, NOT THE WHOLE LENGTH. PLEASE MEASURE YOUR DOGS NECK BEFORE ORDERING.
