From the seller's notes
This is a charming and nostalgic vintage Soviet-era rubber toy, originally designed as a bath toy or squeaker for children. The figure depicts a stylized, cartoonish fish (resembling the magical "Golden Fish" from classic Russian fairytales) featuring large expressive eyes with eyelashes, beautifully molded scales, and a classic mid-century gradient color scheme blending yellow, orange, and blue. It is a wonderful little survivor of Soviet toy manufacturing and evokes a strong sense of Eastern European nostalgia.
