Diamond Dog

Obsessed with your pet and want the world to know it? Building management has a strict no puppy rule but just need a little bit of Fido in your daily life anyway? Got a fatty return from Uncle Sam and no where to spend it? If you answered ‘yes’ to any of those questions, you may be in the market to splurge at Diamond Dog, a New York based fine jewelry line that specializes in making cute, canine themed pieces.

Designer Suzanne Mates combined her love for fashion, jewelry and her puppy Ellie to create Diamond Dog in 2008. A graduate of FIT, Mates wanted to design fun yet upscale pieces for her clients. Her charms, rings, and earrings are all hand made and encrusted with (what else) diamonds adorned with onyx and sapphires. She only uses non-conflict diamonds and donates a portion of her profits to no-kill shelters. One of my favorites in her collection is the Bone Studs- a subtle and tasteful way to wear some bling in a fun shape.
