Scroll downThis was our first visit to Kanazawa and it did not disappoint. As we meandered through the streets we found so many great little spots (which we sufficiently raided). Although our sojourn was meant to be a break, we couldn't resist picking up some pieces. We found this tiger statue in a small antique/vintage shop and due to our love of animals couldn't resist picking it up.
Details:
Size: Approx. H12.5cm x L27.3cm
We instantly fell in love with this tiger statue, we almost didn't want to part with it, if it were up to us our homes would be filled with nothing but cool animals.
Story
This was our first trip to Kanazawa and while this detour was meant to be a mini 'break' we couldn't help ourselves and picked up some pieces on our travels.
We explored the famous Kenroku-en garden, went to some museums and galleries, sat in the onsen, walked the snow filled streets, ate and drank some of the best food ever, and stumbled across this cool antique store where we walked away with half their stock.
