Enjoy decorating your table and plates with these delightful little tin figurines. 

This set includes a crab, an ayu fish, and 2 natural stones. Ayu fish, also known as sweetfish, is a freshwater fish enjoyed during the summer season. Created out of tin, both the crab and fish showcase captivating designs that beautifully depict their distinct form. The 2 stones add a natural feel to the metallic silver hue of the crab and fish. 

This set is the ideal decoration for the flat ikebana flower vases. It can also be used for plates with summer-style culinary creations, or as a seasonal touch to a table setting.
