The making of itThe story behind the piece, and why we chose it
The moment you slip this hand-spliced rope collar over your dog's neck, cool blues and soft greys catch the light like a piece of the sea brought to land - each knot tied by Laura at Oonalfie a small act of deliberation rather than mass production. The marine-grade cotton holds its shape through every muddy walk and enthusiastic shake, while the solid brass clip develops its own patina over time, becoming more characterful with wear. It's a collar that looks like it has a story, because it does.
Each collar is hand-spliced by Laura in her studio in Oxfordshire, working in small batches with the same patient attention a sailor gives to rigging that has to hold. The rope itself is chosen for its tight, even braid, which distributes pressure gently and evenly rather than concentrating it at a single point, making it as kind to your dog's neck as it is pleasing to look at.
Rope wears honestly: it softens with use, resists the grime of muddy lanes better than many woven fabrics, and holds its form through seasons of wear. Because Laura works to order in small runs, Orders are typically dispatched within 8-10 days.
Why we chose this
Laura's hand-spliced collars from her Oxfordshire studio represent exactly the kind of considered, quietly beautiful making that we look for: no shortcuts, no factory lines, just rope and skill and a genuine love of dogs.
Size & fitMeasurements and how to fit
Available in five sizes. All measurements are internal circumference - measure around the inside of your dog's current collar, not around the neck. The 3D nature of the rope means measuring an existing collar gives a more accurate fit.
X-Small: 28 - 32 cm | Small: 33 - 38 cm | Medium: 39 - 44 cm | Large: 45 - 48 cm | X-Large: 49 - 58 cm

QuestionsAnswers to common questions
What size Rope Dog Collar - Himalayan does my dog need, and how do I measure?
Available in five sizes. Measurements are internal circumference (the size of the finished collar loop). Because our collars are crafted from 3D rope, the most accurate way to size is to measure the internal circumference of a collar your dog already wears comfortably. If your dog has no collar, measure gently around the base of the neck where the collar will sit, keeping the tape comfortably snug, then choose the size whose range includes your measurement.
X-Small: 28 - 32 cm | Small: 33 - 38 cm | Medium: 39 - 44 cm | Large: 45 - 48 cm | X-Large: 49 - 58 cm
Final check: a correctly sized collar should not pull easily over your dog's head. Prefer an exact fit? Custom sizes (in cm) are available at no extra cost. Add your measurement in the order notes at checkout, or email us and we will craft it to size.
