Gold Koi Fish Lantern

Bring the elegance of traditional Japanese koi culture to your next festival with this stunning gold koi fish lantern. Inspired by the legendary koi of Japanese koi ponds and the symbolism of perseverance and good fortune, this oversized illuminated sculpture captures the flowing grace of a real koi mid-leap, with hand-painted scales, fins, and a serene expression that radiates calm energy.

Each gold koi fish lantern is built using our traditional Zigong silk-over-steel construction. The galvanized steel frame keeps the sculpture rigid and weatherproof, while the hand-stretched silk body is coated with a UV-resistant and fire-retardant finish. Inside, warm white LED lighting brings the fish to life, accentuating the rich orange-gold gradient across the body, fins, and tail.

Perfect for Chinese lantern festivals, Japanese cultural events, zoo aquatic exhibits, water park installations, and shopping mall centrepieces. We can customise the size, colour palette, swimming pose, and surrounding scenery — pair your koi with lotus leaves, water ripples, or a school of smaller fish to create a fully immersive pond scene.
