This very old breed of dog has been around for more than a thousand years. It has a long history of being a companion dog and it shows in its friendly and happy nature. The Hinoki wood carving of the Chin is in a full, round, recumbent pose with detailed rendering of its distinctive long coat; Its face painted with lacquered eyes and his red painted expressive tongue. The carver also rendered the Chin's compelling paws. The Chin sports a pleated green ruffled collar with a red bow on the back of its neck. Excellent representation of a Japanese Chin carved in the Taisho Period (1912-1925).
