Collier portrait d'animal à bords cordés
A rope-edge pendant carrying their face inside an old-world frame. Drawn by hand from your photo, sized for the days you want them close at your chest.
Some portraits ask for a frame, not just a pendant. The twisted rope edge wraps your pet's face in old-world detail: the kind of piece you'd pass down, not just wear out. An artist hand-draws every fold of an ear, the spark in an eye, the way fur falls. Then laser-engraves it inside a border that gives the whole pendant its heirloom weight. For the days you want them with you, and the day you give the necklace to someone who'll carry them after you.

Common questions
Will my pet's portrait look like them inside the ornate frame?
Yes — the artist composes the face to fit cleanly within the rope-edge frame. Eyes, ears, markings centered in the visible portion. The framed composition reads as a small painting, not a bare disc. If your reference can't carry the detail, we'll ask for another.
Will the rope-edge texture and engraving hold up through daily wear?
The rope-edge isn't a separate piece glued on — it's hand-finished into the steel itself, which is why it can't loosen or wear off. The 316L underneath is tarnish-resistant. The plating holds color through years of contact. Portrait engraving lives inside the steel, structural, not surface.
Why a bead chain instead of cable or paperclip?
The bead chain shares the rope-edge's softer, textured silhouette — both have small repeating elements that read as vintage rather than modern. A cable chain's flat ovals would clash visually with the ornate frame. The pendant + chain are designed as a pair.
How is this different from your Pet Portrait Necklace?
The frame is the difference. The Portrait Necklace presents the portrait on a clean disc (modern, minimal). This rope-edge pendant wraps the portrait in a vintage ornate border — picked when the piece should read as a framed portrait, not a bare pendant.
