Menagerie - Animal Inspired Handmade Jewelry by Shadow Dog Designs
Posted July 29, 2021
Menagerie: a collection of animals, frequently exotic, kept for display. The term was first used in 17th-century France, in reference to the management of household or domestic stock.
Anyone who knows me knows I love animals in all shapes and sizes - always have, always will. So I wanted to share a collection of animal jewelry with you that can be found in my Shadow Dog Designs handmade jewelry shop. Even though these animals found on these earrings and necklaces are not alive, they can definitely be termed a menagerie since there is a wide variety, from exotic animals, such as tigers and giraffes, to domestic animals, like dogs and cats. If something catches your eye and you want to see more photos and information, please click on the photo or the link below the picture to be taken directly to the item. I hope you enjoy this menagerie of one of a kind jewelry!
