Description

A bold and lively hand-carved fish keychain, crafted from medium-hard natural wood and finished in a vibrant red-and-white color combination. Each piece is carved by hand, painted in alternating stripes, then lightly sanded after drying to create a weathered, distressed look before being sealed with clear lacquer. This process gives each fish a unique, rustic texture with a glossy, durable surface. Its playful color and handcrafted charm make it a perfect little piece for anyone who loves authentic handmade art.

Every fish is carved, painted, and aged by hand, signed by the artist, and protected with lacquer. The price is for one keychain. A few are available in stock, but it can also be made to order if sold out.

Story Behind the Piece

This red-striped fish was never meant to be perfect — and that’s exactly what makes it special. It started from a random piece of leftover wood, carved purely by instinct. The bright red stripes were painted freehand, with no measuring or masking — just a steady rhythm of color and motion. After drying, the paint was intentionally sanded to reveal the wood beneath, giving it a rugged, time-worn texture. Finally, it was sealed with a glossy lacquer to capture that raw, playful spirit forever.
It’s a small, cheerful reminder that not everything needs to be flawless to have character.
