Hi all, I have this Neodymium fish, I'm unsure on the origins, maybe its Chinese, Czech, Italian or other?. The base is polished and of clear glass, I have searched through the message board and found that ZBS make quite alot of Neodymium glass animals, but did not find anything like it or mounted on clear bases. I would welcome your thoughts please.

Thanks in advance.

Robert.

This is not ZBS fish. Not Czech fish I guess.

Hello Robert, :hi:  please could I see a picture of it from above? Looking down on the back.....preferably on a white surface?  I think it might be Swedish....just a gut feeling at the moment. Thanks,
