Sweet Little Carved Dog with Handle Tail Japanese dog and then these wonderful hand-painted

and then these wonderful hand-painted marching red birds in great dark red

A little wear around the edges of the gold painted frame plus tearing to the black paper on the back

often smaller versions of larger sized models

I'm partial to the fruit and vegetable drawings

Sweet Little Carved Dog with Handle Tail Japanese dog and then these wonderful hand-paintedA little charmer of a carved dog I think, with a tail that doubles as a handle should one want to wear him around one's neck or otherwise carry him around! He's got a bit of the feel of a sled dog to me, making me wonder if he's Alaskan or Canadian and if there might once have been a sled tethered to that tail? 3 1 8 x 2 7 16 x 3 4 and in very good condition, with some age for sure.
