Crystal Fish FigurineCollections of things such as stamps, plush toys, shoes, coins, to name a few, are a favorite pastime of many. Sometimes, however, collecting can get tricky, especially when starting to have too many of thing and not enough of another. Having themed collections makes the process much easier, that way it (and you) can stay organized and focused on what it is exactly you are collecting.Crystal falls into the category of things that are popular collectors items. While vases and fancy bowls are all lovely, just how many of them can you have? Crystal figurines, on the other hand, can be made part of a cohesive group given their size and weight. Once the collection begins to look cluttered and disorganized, a theme is the way to go. Aquatic crystal figurines such as a crystal fish figurine, is a popular choice of theme for a collection. There are endless options here including an entire crystal fish figurine collection, a dolphin crystal figurine collection, or, even a combination of all things that live in the ocean. Meaning can be found in just about everything if you look hard enough. Fish are no exception to this rule which is why a themed crystal fish figurine collection is a popular choice when it comes to crystal. In Greco-Roman mythology, fish were sacred and represented both change and transformation. In the myth of Aphrodite and Heros, in order to escape the evil Typhon, they turned themselves into fish. Fish in Christianity symbolize faith and abundance as can be seen in the Biblical story of fishes and loaves. In addition, Christ refers to several of his disciples as “fishers of men” in several Biblical references. In this case, man is a representation of a transformational fish and the ocean is the depths of hell in which man can be found. In Pagan tradition, fish are a symbol of fertility and one of the attributes of the Goddess. Fish – salmon specifically - in ancient Celtic traditions, symbolized wisdom, knowledge, prophecy, and inspiration. Celts were of the belief that the salmon came by its wisdom from eating sacred hazel nuts found in the well of knowledge. For a human to eat the salmon meant that wisdom would be attained from the well too. Eastern India, Ancient Africa, China, Buddhism, and in Norse and ancient European cultures, fish all have significant symbolic meanings, which in turn are critical to their cultures. When presenting a crystal fish figurine as a gift, it would be appropriate to attach a card that explains the aquatic creatures significance in different cultures throughout history. From gold fish to angel fish, any type of crystal fish figurine is appropriate, whether it be for the start of a new collection, an addition to an already established collection, or, just for fun, for someone that would appreciate the meaning behind it.
