In this video you get to watch a talented mache artist make a fishwichwich from paper mache. It is fast paste but you get the idea of how he does it. Starting with the paper mache materials, the paste and paper, he makes the body and head in several pieces. He pastes these together and uses some sort of stick to make its spikes. He covers the spikes with mache so they have a more realistic look and starts to smooth out the features of the fish. Once the body is done, he's got the teeth and some fake eyeballs in, he then paints it using a couple different techniques. Once he is done this first fish, he makes a slightly smaller one and places it in its mouth. He then does it once more. This is why it is known as a fishwichwich.

Does anyone know the artist, history or origin of this Blow/Puffer Fish. It stands at 30 inches tall by 24 inches wide, with a depth of 24 inches. It looks and feels exactly like porcelain. I have searched the internet for many, many months trying to get some information on this item without success. Everyone agreed that this item is unique and one of a kind but I really do need some information. If not, does anyone know the contact information of an expert or specialist in this field that could assist me.
I thank you in advance for any time and assistance anyone can give on this matter. I have attached an image/photograph of this item that was taken before we purchased it. We can post more images of it, at different angles within another day or two as it is with a friend at another location putting it on show for the purpose of finding out its history.
