We can’t stop staring at these otherworldly goldfish bags

Look, I already have a bag that looks like a fish. It’s a great fish bag. But if you’re an underwater creature-obsessee like me, Atelier Iwakiri’s goldfish bags are going to blow your mind:

According to BoingBoing, the Japanese studio makes all of these wild bags by hand, meaning that you could wait as long as three months between your bag order and your delivery. And naturally, these gorgeous giant goldfish don’t come cheap: A large goldfish will set you back over $1,000; a smaller goldfish costs $667.

But if you’re looking for a funky, permanent addition to your bag family, we can’t think of anything more arresting. And if fish aren’t quite your thing, check out the chameleon bag ($571)…
