A large Castillo-style folk art fish made of abalone shell set in brass, with each segment hinged so the body bends and sways. The shell flashes green, violet, and blue. Made in Mexico in the tradition of the Los Castillo workshop in Taxco. Lovely laid along a mantel or hung on a wall.
Size: Approx. 14" L
Note: Lots of repairs and a few missing shells - would recommend using for decor only, not bottle opening. Please carefully inspect all photos before purchasing. Vintage items are sold as-is and may show signs of age or wear. All sales are final.
