This is not your grandpa’s soap-on-a-rope. The tai fish (otherwise known as sea bream or red snapper) has been a highly prized fish for centuries, symbolic of great prosperity and wealth. In Japanese culture, the fish has many uses beyond good eats. It is represented in various forms for celebrations such as weddings, births and New Years. In western Japan, a pair of tai can be found hanging from doorways to ward off evil spirits.

Now the tai comes to us in the form of a naturally moisturizing, plant-derived soap. Your choice of pomegranate (red), brown sugar (black/brown) or lilies (white). Lather on the good fortune!

Good fortune never smelled so sweet!
