Kohaku Koi String Art Kit
Bring a little calm to your chaos. The Kohaku Koi String Art Kit is a tribute to the elegance, grace, and quiet strength of one of Japan’s most iconic fish. With flowing lines, layered colours, and the Japanese character for water (水) woven into the design, this kit is a mindful, hands-on project with a bold and peaceful finish.
Slightly more intricate than our beginner kits, the Kohaku Koi features 144 nails, four pre-chosen colours of string, and a vertical layout that adds movement and depth to any space. But don’t worry—our **custom nail holder** and crystal-clear instructions are here to guide you through every step, from nailing to that final satisfying loop of thread.
Every kit is carefully assembled in Britain and designed to be as enjoyable to make as it is to display. Whether you choose the **Complete Kit** (includes our lightweight pinhead hammer) or the **Basic Kit** (bring your own), you’re in for a deeply rewarding, screen-free escape. It’s solo-friendly, but makes for a relaxing social craft too—if you’re willing to share.
As Mungo says:
“No need to fish for compliments—this one earns them.”
