The graceful and dynamic goldfish "Ryukin" is made using red (copper-red) colored glass, which is said to be the most difficult color to achieve. The goldfish pattern is expressed using unusual fish roe (nanako) and stone grain patterns, resulting in the bold, gorgeous, and stylish "Edo Kingyo." Goldfish patterns have been considered auspicious since ancient times, and are also known as a motif for increasing financial luck.
