kissing angelfish

Requiring less than a full block of ice, this kissing angelfish piece is great for seaside wedding receptions.
*updated 2/1/12
This design is based on the earlier angelfish design. I haven’t carved this piece, but there’s nothing technically unusual about it, so I wouldn’t expect any difficulties. Just be sure that the lower fins are thick enough to support the ice above and pay special attention to the point where the fish meet.

The tops of the dorsal fins do need to be welded on and if you carve the sculpture from a thinner slab, you can get the dorsal fins and also a stabilizing base (not pictured) from a 3-4” thick slab cut from the block. Or, if you have an extra piece of ice that has enough thickness, you could cut the dorsal fin and then split the piece, giving you two fins.

If you have any questions about this piece, email me or comment below. If you would like to use this ice sculpture design or any other design on this site, please check the design usage guidelines. The design collection page lists designs on the site.
