Sumiyoshi Ningyo "Mutsumi Inu" (Mutual Affection Dog) This is a lucky charm associated with Sumiyoshi Taisha Shrine in Osaka. Production in the local Sumiyoshi area was discontinued long ago, and for many years, kilns of Sakai-minato ware in Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, produced "Sumiyoshi Ningyo." This work is "Mutsumi Inu." It is a doll of two dogs overlapping, and is a lucky charm for safe childbirth, marital harmony, and family well-being. - It still looks quite clean at first glance, but it is an old item, so it is being sold with some scratches and stains. I can add more photos, so please let me know if you have any concerns. Please check the photos before purchasing. For those who understand that this is an old item, thank you for your consideration.
