Kissing Fish Box & Vessel
The pair of kissing fish on each side represent truth and understanding. The kissing fish tail-fins meet at each corner forming a singing bird head representing positive news and good times ahead. Essentially two boxes, the hollowed out Kissing Fish Box fits upon a classic shaped hollowed out Vessel for elevated structure and additional storage.
