ABOUT THIS BROOCH

Absolutely adorable, the Dachshund, also known as the 'wiener dog,' or 'Doxie,' originated in Germany over 300 years ago. Smart, perky, and full of energy, they also have their own race—The Weiner Dog Race— which began in Austria during the 1970s, and, no doubt, is very amusing to watch. This little guy hails from the Mid-Century and has a coat of 18K yellow gold, hand engraved to create a smooth texture. Although his shimmering leash, set with modern European diamonds in 18K white gold, is wrapped around him, the only place he's looking to walk, or race to, is your lapel. Woof!

About Mid-Century Jewelry

Mid-Century jewelers gave the Victorians a run for their money when it came to variety—with the added bonus of big, bold gems in every shape, size, and color. Themes of previous eras were made fabulous enough to match the optimism of the post-war world. Transitional pieces bridged the gap between the first and second half of the 20th century.

Jewelry Care

As with anything of value, especially sentimental value, taking good care of your vintage and antique jewelry from Lang will enhance its beauty and extend its lifespan. We encourage you to have your jewelry checked and cleaned by us or by your trusted local jeweler every six months, to ensure that each piece is in good wearable condition with all gemstones in place. It’s not uncommon for stones to loosen over time, and it’s much easier to tighten a loose stone than to replace a lost one! As stated in our Repair Policy, we strongly recommend that you allow us to perform any repairs, since our jewelers are specialists in restoring vintage and antique jewelry.
