Baitfish Shoal “hand painted blue”
We designed this fish with movement in mind, featuring a longer body shape that provides a sense of direction when placed in our school formations. Each fish is 140mm in length. A cut line detail marks the gill plate, allowing us to seamlessly integrate colour with the stainless steel silver body. They swim in a school that sit's horizontally across your wall. I believe in leaving the door wide open on interpretation of each fish species saying it’s all in the eye of the beholder which can ultimately vary from person to person. Considerable effort by Janine has gone into meticulously hand-painting the eyes, fins, and tail, starting with a base blue and adding layers of various shades of blue and white to create the depth and richness you see. This technique & colour style brings a clean deep-sea feel and is one of our most popular styles.
This artwork is perfect for illuminating areas throughout the house and can be paired with a larger single fish to cover larger wall spaces.
Creating each fish involves a meticulous 15-step process, beginning with the use of premium 316 marine-grade stainless steel. Once the design is finalized, it is precisely cut with a laser cutter, followed by thorough cleaning of the front, back, and edges. Without revealing all our secrets, further steps include colouring, shaping and forming, placing the Paua/abalone shell eye, applying a clear coat spray, and assembling. This meticulous attention to detail ensures every piece is uniquely handcrafted meaning no two pieces are ever quite the same! Easy to install with a chain on the back which makes it Easy to change the angle/direction of the school once mounted on your wall. Comes in its own box with mounting screw included along with Jiwa steel information for your convenience.
