| Large sized Inu Hariko. In Edo years, these were used as a felicitous gift after a child’s birth. They were customarily sold at shrines as charms for babies. In recent years, it’s a popular decorative toy, winsome and whimsical. This particular one is an Azuma dog from Nihombashi, Tokyo. A toy dog identical to this one was used on Japan’s 1958 New Year’s stamp design. Black, scarlet, cobalt and light blue painted over a white body. Great condition. Mid-century, c. 1950. Measures 12 1/2” x 5” x 8 1/2”. | |||||
