These hand-carved fish were used historically as a lever on a hanging device engineered to raise and lower a pot or kettle over an open hearth in a traditional Japanese home. The "tai" fish is a symbol of prosperity so it was given a functional purpose (the ring and the hole are utilized for this) as well as being auspicious. It is 11.5" long and 5.5" high (29 by 14 cm). You'll love it.......I guarantee it!
