The Western Native Sun Leather Collar is a handmade 1.5" leather dog collar featuring a large Native American–style sun concho with a marbled turquoise center, framed by 11mm marbled turquoise stones in antique copper settings — a bold, western-inspired statement piece designed for large dogs.

Each collar is handcrafted with solid brass hardware and antique copper accents for an authentic southwestern aesthetic. Handcrafted from premium leather, the Western Native Sun is a one-of-a-kind piece for dog owners who love bold, rustic style.

Leather Color Options

Classic Tones: Brown, Mid Brown, Chocolate Brown, Dark Brown, Black Cool Tones: Gray, Blue

All leather is premium full-grain that ages beautifully with wear. Explore the full Leather Guide to see each color in detail.

⚠️ Leather color may appear different from photos due to lighting conditions. Lighter and colored leathers (such as blue and gray) are naturally more prone to visible shade variation. Each hide absorbs dye differently — slight tone differences are normal and part of the character of genuine leather.

Optional Nameplate (Sold Separately)

This collar does not include a nameplate. To match the brass and copper hardware, we recommend:

• Brass Nameplate — clean, warm brass finish
• Copper Nameplate — rich, rustic copper finish
• Two-Layer Nameplate (Brass + Copper) — our signature double-layer for a premium look

(Nickel nameplates are not recommended with this collar — the brass and copper tones look best paired together.)

Tapered Buckle Options for a Cleaner Fit

To improve comfort and reduce bulk at the buckle, the 1.5" Western Native Sun offers two taper options:

• Under 20" → can taper to a 1" buckle (reduces bulk while keeping the bold look)
• Under 16" → can taper to a 3/4" buckle (slimmer, more delicate finish for smaller necks)

This keeps the collar's silhouette clean and balanced on every neck size.

How to Measure Your Dog's Neck

Use a soft cloth measuring tape and wrap it around your dog's neck where the collar will naturally sit. Do NOT measure an existing collar — sizing must come from your dog directly.

All collars are measured from the buckle pin (base of the buckle) to the middle hole and include 5 adjustment holes with 1" spacing for proper fit and flexibility.

Collars too large or too small due to incorrect measurements are not eligible for refunds or exchanges. If a collar is made incorrectly and doesn't match the size ordered, we'll replace it.

Craftsmanship & Materials

Each Western Native Sun Collar is individually handmade using full-grain leather, quality plated hardware, antique copper-set turquoise stones, and a hand-finished sun concho. Because every collar is handcrafted, natural variations in leather grain and finish make each piece one of a kind — and the leather develops more character with wear.
