Koi Pond with Lily Pads, jewelry dish with real gold accents
This delicate jewelry dish looks like a small pond with floating miniature lily pad leaves and three koi fish. Koi fish, especially orange koi, have long been symbols of good fortune, courage, and prosperity. Koi are beautiful fish that are known to swim strongly against currents, symbolizing strength in life's challenges.
The tiny leaves are imprints of small nasturtium leaves which have the appearance of tiny lily pads. The spots of blue water are accented by hand and dotted with real 22kt gold, giving them a delicate sparkle.
These ceramic jewelry holders are a one-of-a-kind pieces made completely by hand, and each dish and leaf imprints are unique. The ceramic dish is fired in a kiln to over 2200 degrees F for full vitrification and a beautiful glossy finish. Real gold is added by a special process for ceramics and the dish is fired a third time to bond the gold.
Measures approximately 5 inches across. Each dish is made from real leaves that are as unique as fingerprints - please allow for slight variations.
