Elegant Collar

Yes, because we handmake all our collars to order, you can choose a different combination of crystals and embellishments than those shown on the website. You will just need to email us to let us know what combination you'd like (the only instance we won't be able to fulfil your request is if we don't have the required stock on hand).

BioThane® is a robust and durable coated webbing. It consists of a polyester core coated with polymer plastic. It is made in the USA, third-party tested for safety, and registered to ISO 9001:2015 quality standard.

We use BioThane® for the strapping in all our collars, leads and harnesses because of it's reputable quality and safety - and because it performs in ways that leather, nylon and rope cannot: it won't tear, crumble or peel; it won't cause allergic reactions; it's soft and comfortable to wear; it doesn't absorb water or create smells; and it's super easy to clean and wash.

Every Elegant Dog Collar is handcrafted in Wellington New Zealand, and we seal every cut end of the BioThane® with specialised paints so the collar is perfectly finished and remains waterproof. If you would like more information, check out our product specifications page or our blog article about BioThane®.

While the Elegant Dog Collar is made from BioThane® strapping, which is fully waterproof - it also contains a range of different metals and semi-delicate embellishments that are not suited to the corrosive effects of sea water. As such, we recommend this collar is NOT used for sea swimming.

Please note that seawater damage on hardware not recommended for the sea is not covered by the Led & Collared® Gear Guarantee.

Yes, the Elegant Dog Collar can be personalised with a Scrag Tag, an engraved tag attached directly onto the collar. You simply need to add your chosen tag as a seperate item (in your cart) and select "yes" to the "attach to collar" option when customising your tag. There are three different types of Scrag Tag:

• Riveted Scrag Tag - permanently fixed with rivets, with space for two lines of text
• Slide-On Scrag Tag - attached with durable plastic sleeve, with space for three lines of text
• QR Code Scrag Tag - either riveted of slide-on, includes a dynamic QR code that provides an easy way for others to easily access all your dog or cat's important information quickly and easily.

The Scrag Tag is both safe and unique in that it does not dangle, snag, jingle or fall off. So you can avoid the annoyance jingling noises and rest easy in the knowledge that your dog's details will always be attached to them!
