Queen Victoria was always a trendsetter from Christmas trees to white wedding dresses. In the 1860s, the Queen visited the Scottish Highlands and there she fell in love with the Collie dog. This will come as no surprise to those already familiar with the breed. Queen Victoria loved animals and she used her jewelry to tell her own story throughout her life. The Collie is well known for intelligence, as a herding dog, a watchdog, and family member. Famously loyal, most of us have heard of Lassie and so when we think of a Collie we think of the long-haired Rough Coat Collie with the flowing mane and gorgeous fur. We count on these dogs to go find help after an unsuspecting youngster tumbles into a well.
Intelligence, loyalty and a gentle temperament make the Collie dog a special herding dog, whether for sheep, ducks, or even the more challenging task of herding rams. The Rough Coat Collie pendant has captured the majestic coat by highlighting it’s the long flowing fur we so closely associate with the breed. The ears are tipped, showing off the alertness typically of the Collie breed. Inside the Collie charm body we see a sheep in an active pose, moving through the pasture.
