I found this at a thrift store a few years ago and I've struggled to identify any of the symbols. I've tried online symbol databases, I think I tried reverse image searching, and I've tried just scrolling endless "fish" symbols to no avail. It's handmade and uses poly-fabrics, so it's certainly not an antique (or at least not a really old antique).
I love it. I think it looks really cool. I don't want to hang it up, though, if it has meaningful and/or religious meaning that would make that inappropriate.
Can anyone toss a theory my way? Is this religious imagery? Will it curse my descendants? Is this someone's Saturday afternoon craft, and they had no foresight that their fun "designs" would torture the back of my brain for years?
