This incense container in the shape of a puppy is made of lacquer on wood. And it faithfully represents a puppy; even its paws are depicted on the bottom as seen in Netsuke (seal caddy accessory) holding the same form.
The one (old Cazale collection) similar to this work is owned to Osaka Municipal Museum of Art now.
