金の鯉 (kin no koi): "the golden koi."
Japanese celebrations run on puns. Sea bream, tai, turns up at weddings because it echoes medetai, joyful, and kelp, kobu, gets tucked into New Year dishes for yorokobu, to rejoice. The carp has the best one of all: 鯉 and 恋 are both read koi, and the second means love. Breeders call their colored carp nishikigoi, brocade carp, after the woven silk, and a solid gold one is an ōgon, named for the metal.
A gold koi with red-edged scales leaps through cream-capped waves on the back, with red cherry blossoms and green leaves around it and loose petals falling. There are no words on this one, just the fish. A small badge of the same koi sits on the chest.
Gold on black dresses up fine with dark jeans and a good jacket, and with that pun it makes an easy anniversary or Valentine's gift. If one carp isn't enough, the full koi collection has more. Gold, black and a pun to explain it: the card writes itself.
