A circular dark green enamel plate features horizontal rows of stylized fish in shades of teal and blue. Near the center, a bright turquoise rectangle encloses a dark fish silhouette. Directly below, two fish are rendered in vibrant, shimmering turquoise. The remaining fish appear in muted tones against a mottled, iridescent background. The composition uses varying shades to create depth within the school of fish, which swim both left and right.
