Water Basin, Water Lily, Medaka Fish Bowl, Dragon, Custom-Made, One-of-a-Kind, Made by Koishihara Kiln
Product Details
This was custom-ordered from a craftsman at a kiln in Koishiwara, Fukuoka, an area famous for Koishiwara ware.
I made many specific requests, so it took a considerable amount of time to complete, and they had to redo parts multiple times. However, I believe the facial expression and coloring turned out wonderfully!
The idea was to have water flowing out of the dragon's mouth, similar to the last image, so I had them create a hole on the lower left side of the face, allowing for a thin hose to pass through. (You can make water flow from the mouth using a pump, etc.! It might be challenging for those without nimble fingers to insert the hose.)
Due to moving and relocating, the fingertips have been broken in about three places and repaired. I hope you can add to them or cut them to customize as you wish!
I enjoyed using it in my office with water lilies and medaka (killifish). (^^)
It likely weighs around 10kg (I will measure it later), and since packaging will require the creation of a wooden frame, it may take some time for shipping! (Please consult with me before purchasing.)
There are no water leaks.
I believe you can create a stylish display depending on your ideas and placement, so I would appreciate your consideration. m(_ _)m
