swimming fish arcade


5/8" x  2", silver, brass.  Use the bead at the bottom to help the fish cavort in the waves.

I like jewelry that moves, have a thing for automata (things with mechanisms, like a guy doffing his hat when you turn the crank), keep coming back to little scenes like this - and boxes, love little boxes.  I look forward to doing a bit of a study on these.

This particular one went absolutely awry at every turn but taught me much.
