KOI
The symbol of strength, endurance and ambition in Japanese culture
An elegant representation of the fish symbol of Japan that is becoming increasingly popular in Western art.
A specimen with an imposing and colorful appearance, can reach in nature even a meter in length, has a very deep meaning in the culture of the rising sun.
Legend has it that it is the only fish with the strength and tenacity to swim up the legendary "yellow river" Huang Ho, and in doing so it faces waterfalls and rapids transforming into a dragon after conquering the river, acquiring immportality. The meaning of this legend is linked to the strength of will and the change in positive, and merit, after their own efforts and sacrifices, emphasizing that anyone, with the strength of will, can also get to important results by performing great feats.
In Japanese culture this fish therefore embodies strength, resistance and ambition.
Moreover, because of its colorful scales, it is also a symbol of wealth and success and is considered special as a good luck charm, as well as having a meaning as fidelity in love.
Our artists have captured all these qualities in the KOI glass series.
This decorative sculpture radiates elegance while appearing noble and eye-catching.
