Koi are not just beautiful to behold, but make unique pets to those who know how to appreciate and care for them.

This carving of 10 perfect specimens captures the affinity and joy that can exist in interactions between enlightened people and creatures of unique beauty.   

The Koi seem almost alive, as they playfully kiss the surface, and welcome their friends.

This masterpiece invites one to put a hand into the water and tickle the fish – if only to be reassured that they are all of, and one with, a single source.

This is a piece of art that makes one feel elated, no matter what dark clouds may loom.
