Japanese White Glazed Hirado Ware Puppy, Edo/Meiji Period, Mid 19th Century

About the Item

An adorable Japanese Hirado Mikawachi ware porcelain model of a dog with clear glaze over bright white porcelain Edo to Meiji period, early to mid 19th Century. This adorable puppy is portrayed in a standing position with tail raised above it's back and slightly curled to one side. The dogs face is cute and calm with stylized alert stance. It's beyond good looking. This has been in my personal collection for over 20 years.
