Hermès Collier de Chien Bracelet Small Model

The Hermès Collier de Chien bracelet in the small model is worked in 18k rose gold with diamonds. The Collier de Chien takes its studs and central ring directly from nineteenth century harness work, reworked here in precious metal, and the small model keeps the motif tight to the wrist. The diamonds are set into the pyramid studs rather than across the band, so the stones punctuate rather than cover.

Hermès produces its jewellery in limited quantity, and the diamond-set CDC bangles in shorter series than the plain gold. Bangle sizing is fixed at manufacture.

The small model is generally chosen over the standard Collier de Chien size by clients who want the studded, harness-derived silhouette without its full original scale, and it sits close enough to the wrist to be worn alongside a Kelly or Love bracelet without crowding either piece. Because the diamonds sit inside each individual stud rather than running continuously along the band, Clutch checks every stud's setting separately before listing, since damage to one does not necessarily affect the others the way it would on a continuous pavé surface. The central ring, taken from the original harness fitting, is also checked for smooth movement, since stiffness there is one of the more common wear points on a pre-owned Collier de Chien, alongside the clasp mechanism itself.
