[Size] Glass ball: diameter approx. 18mm The goldfish is not colored in a single color, but in several different colors to create a gradation, so that its vividness stands out. To express the feel of the scales, the belly is painted with gold pearl, so it looks delicate and sparkling depending on the angle. The fins are made thin and transparent. Even the fine lines are carefully drawn one by one with a thin brush. Our goldfish are also particular about the cuteness of their faces. The eyes are as small as a pen tip, and in addition to the pupils and whites, the outer edges of the whites are drawn to give a realistic expression, so you can feel their presence even though they are small. In Japan, red (vermilion) goldfish have long been associated with the meaning of driving away illness and disaster, and goldfish with bulging eyes are said to represent "buds coming out" and "auspiciousness."
