I purchased this lovely little 1930’s greyhound brooch this year to add to my vintage dog pin collection. He is backed with 18 k gold, and has a gold and diamond collar. It was love at first sight (sight hound… get it? ok bad joke! )
Given my love of greyhounds and my passion for vintage dog pins, I just knew he needed to come & live in my kennel of pups! I’m not exactly certain what he is made of, Thoughts anyone? :)

Beautiful greyhound and gorgeous diamond collar. Welcome to CW you will find many dog lovers here - I love all animals :)
Welcome Kirak!
Superb pin!!! Ô..Ô
I think it is carved from smoked quartz, or onyx, frosted.
I have a French bulldog's head hatpin with pearls collar similarly carved.
Will post it soon :-)
Here is my bulldog :-)

He is a gorgeous greyhound, the modeling is simply fantastic !~
Stunning pin, the greyhound is so wonderful, only improved by his bling.
Love this, as soon as I saw this I though of jscott - he collects the rabbits and cast iron figures, the detail in this is wonderful.
Hi Friends!
Thanks much for chiming in and offering suggestions. He hasn't yet arrived, so unfortunately I'm not certain yet. I purchased him via a seller in Washington, and he is coming shortly.
I tend to agree with Kyratango, based on purchase price and, as Racerfor4 so eloquently said... "His bling!" Probably quartz or onyx. Im leaning towards onyx.
BTW: KyraTango, your bulldog is simply stunning! Thanks so much for sharing his photo. I agree my greyhound most probably is of the same quality and period.
Thanks all for your kind comments. I'm having a BALL sharing with you!
Blessings to all!
Lovely hound,did you ascertain what he’s made of ?
