27" Hi Utsuri
5.5 year old female
Shinoda bred
"Each and every October when I go to Niigata for the new
Nishikigoi harvest, my first stop has always been Shinoda farm.
I am deeply saddened that this coming year there is no Shinoda
farm to go to as his greenhouses, office, home and even mud
ponds were completely destroyed from the massive earthquake that
hit this area of northern Japan. Mr. Shinoda and his family
survived this terrible tragedy but only one of his prized
breeders, his famous mother Ginrin Showa, which he hand carried
down the mountain to save her. His breeds of Hi Utsuri, Ginrin
Showa and Doitsu Showa are world famous for their EXCELLENCE and
WINNINGS at all koi shows. This Hi Utsuri in my collection was
purchased just before the earthquake hit and was taken out of
the effected area only hours before his farm was completely
destroyed. She was one of four of his top three year old females
that I was fortunate to acquire. She has it all, excellent body
conformation, a perfect pattern of deep crimson Hi color and wet
ink black Sumi. She is a "Picture Perfect" specimen that you see
only at Japan's top koi shows. The only way that I would part
with her would be to give her back to Mr. Shinoda in order that
he can start breeding his magnificent art work again. I think
that I will offer her to him when I meet with him this year in
Japan."

16" Ginrin Tancho Goshiki
2 year old female
Marujyu bred
Sold to Jan Cohen
"To find a Tancho Goshiki of this quality is once in a blue
moon, but to
find one of this quality that is also GINRIN is once in a
lifetime. She has
it all; a perfect round fire red circle centered on top of her
head,
excellent body conformation with large rounded pectoral fins,
deep coal
black sumi that is sprinkled with star bright diamond
scales(Ginrin) and
most of all the Marujyu bloodline that continues to improve with
age.
Acquiring this rare and magnificent specimen was not an easy
task as
everyone who had the opportunity to see her wanted to purchase
her.
However, Mr. Marujyu offered her to eldonkoi as we were the
first US dealer
to import his Nishikigoi from Japan. This is a once in a
lifetime
opportunity to own such a beautiful rare Ginrin Tancho Goshiki." |

21"-23" Doitsu Midorigoi
Marusaka bred, 3 year old female
$4,500
"The Japanese word for the color green is Midori and the Japanese word for koi is goi, thus Midorigoi is the name for green koi. This type of "UNUSUAL" koi was first bred by cross breeding a Shusui to a doitsu Yamabuki Ogon. Today the breed is true with only a few Japanese farms attempting a yearly spawn as only a limited number are culled up to top quality. Our Spotlight koi is a show quality Doitsu(no scales or only German scales) Midorigoi with excellent body conformation, an even shade of lime green, large rounded pectoral fins, tall sail dorsal fin, big rounded fan tail fin, and most importantly a perfect ZIPPER row of steel blue German scales along her dorsal ridge. According to Marusaka San, the breeder of our magnificent specimen, only one koi of this show quality caliber is obtained out of every 50,000 koi fry that were spawned. Eldonkoi has been importing nishikigoi from Japan for the past 35 years and this is only the
third time that we have found a show quality Midorigoi."
