Lively and affectionate with an appearance more unusual than any other breed, the Chinese Crested is a tiny dog with gigantic personality. Thought to have originated in Africa, the Chinese Crested, also known as the Crested, was a common passenger on Chinese trade ships in the 13th century. The toy breed was used to reduce vermin populations at sea and was often traded among merchants when the ships would port. The Chinese Crested can still be found in port cities across the world. Today, the lovable hairless toy breed is more likely to be found snuggling with its owner under a blanket. A true companion, the Chinese Crested is exceptionally gentle and patient with children of all ages. Its abundant fondness for people has earned the Crested the nickname of a “Velcro” dog, as it often will physically attach itself to its owner by wrapping its paws around the neck.

The Sterling Silver Chinese Crested pendant speaks to Chinese Crested lovers everywhere. The Chinese Crested charm features a full-body profile of the proud standing Hairless Chinese Crested. While the Powderpuff Chinese Crested dons a full coat throughout the body, the Hairless variety is known for its soft skin and long, elegant tufts of silky hair on the head, lower legs, and tail. The Chinese Crested pendant displays a luxurious mane of glossy smooth hair upon the Crested’s head, sweeping back as the hairless toy breed stands prominently, awaiting its next win in the show ring. Owners and lovers of the Crested will also appreciate the large, erect ears depicted in the Chinese Crested charm. From the Crested’s wedge-shaped head and strong muzzle, to the signature plumed tail, not a single detail is missed when it comes to this intricate piece of hairless breed jewelry.
