Where does this fascination for the koi originate and what is the symbolical significance of this carp?<\/p>\n<h6>A TALISMAN THAT CAN LIVE FOR UP TO 70 YEARS<\/h6>\n<p>The koi is attributed a long life, can grow up to 90 cm in size and live for 70 years. In China and Japan, where for instance, it decorates wedding gifts and porcelain, it is regarded as the talisman par excellence. In traditional Japanese tattoo art the koi, in addition to the dragon, has an outstanding status. The spectrum of the Irezumi tattoo style particularly encompasses highly symbolic animals, folk heroes, Buddhist and plant motives, like the typical cherry blossoms that are almost always part of Japanese tattoos. In Japanese tattoo art it\u2019s not necessarily the single subject that counts \u2013 it\u2019s the harmony of the whole. And for this reason the koi cannot be omitted.<\/p>\n<\/div><div ><style>.fusion-imageframe.imageframe-1{ margin-top : 25px;margin-bottom : 20px;}<\/style><span class=\" fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-1 hover-type-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"350\" title=\"blog_koi_2107_art\" src=\"https:\/\/andreclemencon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/blog_koi_2107_art.jpg\" alt class=\"img-responsive wp-image-4718\" srcset=\"https:\/\/andreclemencon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/blog_koi_2107_art-200x88.jpg 200w, https:\/\/andreclemencon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/blog_koi_2107_art-400x175.jpg 400w, https:\/\/andreclemencon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/blog_koi_2107_art-600x263.jpg 600w, https:\/\/andreclemencon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/blog_koi_2107_art.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\"><h6>STRENGTH AND DETERMINATION<\/h6>\n<p>The well-known, colourful kois \u2013 also known as \u2018swimming jewels\u2019 \u2013 are creatures of Asian legend and represent much more than luck and success.
