This elegant 13" Gin Matsuba Butterfly koi combines striking metallic silver coloration with classic Matsuba pinecone reticulation and long flowing butterfly fins. The dark-edged scales create a dramatic netted pattern across the body while the metallic sheen gives the koi a glowing steel-like appearance in the water.
Its extended butterfly fins add graceful movement and visual length, making this koi especially eye-catching as it glides through the pond. The contrast between the bright silver body and darker fins enhances the fish’s refined modern appearance while maintaining the traditional beauty associated with Matsuba varieties.
The clean reticulation pattern continues consistently across the body, creating exceptional texture and depth from head to tail. At 13 inches, this koi already has commanding pond presence and will continue developing into an impressive longfin centerpiece.

- Metallic silver Gin Matsuba coloration
