Pierre Frey  featured Matthieu Sordot’s study of Dogs on a pattern aptly named Saint Hubert, the Patron Saint of Hunters.

Pierre Frey offers Matthieu Sordot’s Saint Hubert Hounds in both a 100% cotton fabric and a wallpaper.

Hermès  hunted down Sordot to create Hounds for their porcelain ashtrays.  

 

 

 

 

The watercolor Hounds include Horse bits & stirrups in the design, because every Interior Design Hound knows:

 

 

where there are horses, you’ll find Dogs.

The ashtray has always been a staple in the gift selection at Hermès. 

 

 

This is my favorite design (although I don’t smoke), because it is a Shopping Hound:

 

 

The Dog is toting a handbag.

Every Shopping Hound needs a Dog handbag, don’t you think?
