List 29/37 - Model: 77677
Rich in detail common to Nepalese artisans, this bronze cast lock replicating a koi fish is both utilitarian and beautiful. It measures 7 inches long when closed, the fish body is 2 inches thick, and the entire lock actually weighs 1.5 pounds. Comes complete with 2 keys.
The manufacture of locks follow age-old designs and are passed along generations. This koi can be locked with the key, or partially locked and released by pushing in the eye - a fine example of the ingenuity of the craftsman. See below for another view.
