Meaning and background
The story behind Azabache
Azabache is Spanish for jet, the dense black material traditionally polished for jewellery. The word can also describe an intense, glossy black colour. It therefore has a particularly concrete association when used for a dark-coated dog, though coat colour cannot be assumed from the name alone. Its Spanish etymological history passes through Arabic and an older Middle Persian word.
