Has an Art Deco look to me. Very elegant but not stuffy. Love this design.

I've never seen a greyhound look so stylish and at a glance catlike! But then again greyhounds are rather elegant and feline creatures, this one reminds me of the artist Erte and should be accompanying a 1920's and very art deco lady down the street or perhaps he's patiently waiting for her to finish her shopping in a place like Harrods or Macy's?!

Nice piece, Eileen is right, he is very similar to the Trifari one. I saw one the other day after seeing this post, and had to go and look.

Thank you Maureen for the wonderful compliments, I knew this pup appealed to me esp for being a different breed, but thanx for pointing out the deco look, it really does have that style

Thanks so much Eileen for the lovely praise and yes, if Judy were still stopping by I would have dedicated this to her and her precious PeeJay. She was one of those who went away several mos ago & I really hope she returns, have several bull pieces (she's Taurus) I promised to post for her

Thomas the greyhound races were so cool in Miami Florida, wonder if they still race them, I love their sleek bodies. Fabulous comment my friend, thanks!

Thanks Scott for the great compliment, you have so many fantastic dogs in your collection I'm glad to find a new breed to show you

Thanks jb for the super comment and my morning smile, I would love to see Ruffles race my greyhound, he would surely win that one but I don't know about those Florida racers lol!

Thank you Lauren for the excellent comment you are so right about the Erte comparison, this dog has that pampered snooty pooch look & belongs on a rich lady's arm :) I also agree the greyhound has a feline grace, we had a family pet that was part greyhound (a mixed breed, in the old days we called them mutts, he was also part beagle) & he inherited those long graceful legs but not the nervous temperament

Thanks MrsT for the kind comment, yes probably inspired by the Trifari piece but I think Carolee did a nice job here, I like her jewelry & have a cat one for a future post
