Glass goldfish ball earrings, red and white, pendulum

These are the long version of the popular goldfish bead earrings. The hanging ball is designed to swing like a pendulum. During the Edo period, people would buy goldfish from goldfish sellers and enjoy them by putting them in glass goldfish bowls called "kingyodama" and hanging them from the eaves. I made miniature goldfish balls like these into earrings. A 14mm glass bead sways gently next to your ear. The fins are also very thin. Even the fine lines on the tail fin are carefully drawn one by one with a thin brush. To ensure that the colors would come out beautifully, I applied multiple coats of different colors, starting with the base coat, on the body as well as the thin fin stripes. A pearl coating is applied to the base, so it appears to sparkle delicately depending on the angle. ◆Metal fittings◆ You can choose between pierced earrings or screw-spring Clip-On.

We try to make the goldfish as similar to the photographs as possible, but each goldfish is sculpted individually without using a mold, with small eyes and fins painted on, so no two are the same in size, face, etc. The aquatic plants are also made from natural materials and are enclosed one by one inside the glass beads, so there are differences in the amount and shape of each piece. We hope you enjoy meeting your very own goldfish. ○Since this item is made of glass, it may break if subjected to impact. (The water inside has solidified, so there is no need to worry about liquid leakage.) ○The cap and glass ball are attached with a high-performance adhesive that is resistant to water and impacts, but if you pull too hard, they may come off. Please handle with care.
