Butterfly black and orange large scale

This bold koi displays a dramatic deep black (Karasu) base with rich burnt orange markings and scattered brown-bronze patterning. The contrast between the dark body and warm tones gives this fish a truly striking, one-of-a-kind appearance. Based on the ruler, this fish measures approximately 7–8 inches.

Its intense colouration suggests a Karasu or Ki Utsuri-type influence — a rare and eye-catching variety that makes a bold statement in any pond.
