I've sculpted the little fish from a chunk of carving wax, made a sand mold of the carved wax, then torch melted the metal and poured it into the sand mold ... sand casting it in sterling silver or bronze. After cleaning up and finishing a few little fish they were lost wax cast and then finished up in my own little studio ... hand crafted jewelry because I believe how it's made matters.
A little note about the beautiful bronze fish ... it will arrive to you pretty shiny but the beauty of bronze is that it will change and develop a beautiful natural patina over time that will vary depending on your environment.
It is said that fish are symbolic of rebirth, fertility, change, luck and health.
We associate fish with the element of water which signifies stability, balance, and tranquility.
