The Shiba Inu dog breed was originally bred to flush birds and small game and was occasionally used to hunt wild boar. They’re one of Japan’s six native breeds and are known for their spirited personality, small upright ears and curly tail. Our Saturno Shiba Inu has a beautifully hand-enameled brown back and legs with paler underparts. The ornament has been lacquered to help prevent tarnishing and this removes the need for cleaning with silver products. The ornament has full UK hallmarks guaranteeing its fineness and quality. The dog makes for a unique gift and as such is supplied in one of our boxes.
