Description
In Japanese culture, carp (or koi) symbolise courage and perseverance because the fish is known for its strength and determination as it swims upstream against the current. Sally’s Carp is a design full of movement and depth. Stylised swimming carp are decorated in colours of orange, black, pink, maroon and teal while the swirling water combines a soft teal, blue and yellow on a celadon ground.
