This impressive vintage Japanese cast iron sculpture depicts an Akita dog, one of Japan’s most iconic native dog breeds and internationally known through the story of the faithful dog Hachiko.

The sculpture beautifully captures the distinctive characteristics of the Akita, including its upright ears, powerful stance, substantial body, and characteristic curled tail.

Fine textured details throughout the body, particularly around the neck, legs, and tail, create a realistic impression of the Akita’s thick coat.

Made of solid and substantial cast iron, the sculpture weighs approximately 1,470 g. The surface features an attractive aged bronze-tone finish with areas of greenish patina-like coloration, giving the piece a wonderfully weathered and traditional appearance.

The combination of its substantial weight, expressive modeling, and aged surface gives this sculpture a strong decorative presence.

A charming piece for collectors of Akita dogs, Japanese vintage objects, animal sculptures, and traditional Japanese decorative metalwork.

Estimated period: Showa Period, circa 1970s–1980s.
