      I love the saturated colour due to using a beautiful metallic green colour !~

      Oooh gorgeous flying fish! I adore his lovely green and blue, or dark teal colour and his lovely flowing fins. He's definitely my favorite upload of yours this week, particularly his really elegant curving shape- he's diving back into the sea now, after doing a long flying jump! :)

      Thank you Phil for your awesome comment about the enamel, yes it sort of has a metallic look to it as well as a nice glaze that enhances the color

      Scott thank you for your delightful comment and I'm so glad you loved this piece, all the Gem-Craft animals are so well made and eye catching

      Thanks so much Searching for your fantastic praise for this flying fish & for my post, you are super nice & I am so happy you found this piece exciting, I thought it's a most unusual fish and pose, it seems to really be in motion jumping out of the water

      MrsT isn't that a cool design with the golden honeycomb-type frame over the enamel, a very original idea. Thank you for your wonderful comment

      Oh Lauren I'm really glad when you have a fave upload of mine & enjoyed this fishy! You're right it is a teal blue & green combo, the face is blue-green then the body all green - I think they wanted the fish's head to stand out. Those curvy fins are really great, and I tried to get a good picture of him diving, these fish in real life are like poetry in motion. Thank you as always for your fabulous praise

      Maybe it’s because I’m a Pisces that I love anything to do with the water..:-)
