The Greyhound Necklace That Gives Back: A Gift with Heart (and a Little Bit of Zoomie Energy)
There’s something quietly magical about a greyhound.
They don’t just enter your life, they glide in, stretch out dramatically across your couch, and somehow become the most elegant, affectionate, slightly ridiculous creature you’ve ever known. One minute they’re statuesque and regal, the next they’re upside down, legs in the air, proudly roaching like it’s an Olympic sport.
For the true greyhound lovers and devoted greyhound pawrents, this isn’t just a pet—it’s a soulmate in long legs and velvet ears.
And now, there’s a piece of jewellery that captures that love… while giving back to the dogs who need it most.
A Necklace for Greyhound Lovers (Who Know the Truth)
Let’s be honest.
Greyhounds as pets are wildly misunderstood.
They look like athletes—but behave like sleepy, oversized cats.
They can sprint like champions—but would rather spend 20 hours a day napping.
They’re graceful, gentle, affectionate… and just a little bit weird.
If you know, you know.
This greyhound necklace was designed for the woman who smiles every time her dog curls into a tiny donut, who laughs when they chatter their teeth with excitement, and who secretly believes there is no better companion on earth.
Because there isn’t.
More Than Jewellery — It’s a Gesture of Love
At Maraux, we believe jewellery should mean something.
Not just look beautiful—but feel meaningful.
That’s why this piece isn’t simply an accessory. It’s a love letter—to the dogs who have changed our lives, and to the women who adore them.
Even more beautifully…
$30 from every necklace is donated to support greyhound rescue organisations, including GreytGreys and Amazing Greys.
Because every purchase becomes part of something bigger:
-
Helping retired racing greyhounds find loving homes
-
Supporting the tireless work of greyhound rescue groups
-
Giving more gentle souls the life they deserve
It’s the kind of gift that says:
“I see what you love… and I love that about you.”
Designed by a Greyhound Mum (Who Gets It)

This piece is deeply personal.
Maraux founder Katy Marks is a proud greyhound mum to Sophie—affectionately known as Shnootz noodle dog.
Which means every detail has been designed with genuine love and understanding of the breed.
The elegance.
The softness.
The quiet companionship.
This necklace carries all of it.
The Perfect Gift (For Her… or From Her, To Herself)
If you’re searching for a gift that actually lands—this is it.
Whether it’s:
-
Valentine’s Day (for the woman whose heart belongs to her hound)
-
Mother’s Day (because yes, dog mums absolutely count)
-
Birthdays (thoughtful always wins over predictable)
-
Christmas (a piece she’ll reach for every day)
This is the kind of gift that feels considered, personal, and quietly luxurious.
Not loud. Not flashy.
Just deeply… right.
And for the woman buying it for herself?
Even better.
Because sometimes the most meaningful gifts are the ones we choose—with intention.
Why Greyhound Pawrents Are Different
There’s a certain kind of woman who falls in love with a greyhound.
She’s warm. Observant. A little romantic.
She notices the small things—like the way her dog leans into her, or sighs contentedly after a long nap.
She doesn’t just want jewellery.
She wants pieces that reflect her world.
Her values.
Her love.
Her story.
This necklace does exactly that.
A Small Piece That Does Something Big
In a world full of fleeting purchases, this one lingers.
Because it’s not just about style, it’s about substance.
A piece that:
-
Celebrates greyhounds as pets
-
Speaks to devoted greyhound lovers
-
Supports real greyhound rescue efforts
-
And honours the quiet, beautiful bond between a woman and her dog
It’s jewellery with a heartbeat.
For the woman who loves deeply, gives generously, and knows that the best companions sometimes come with four legs and a very long snoot…
This one is for her.
Love,
Maraux Jewellery and Shnootz.
