It’s hard to ignore the coastal-preppy undertones that have infiltrated fashion and interiors in recent years—tennis (or, more likely, pickleball) gear; striped decor and furniture; this nostalgic J.Crew account; a sweater tied over the shoulders. Within every trend exists a micro trend, and the latest we’ve been into is the nautical fish motif, adorning dinnerware, fashion accessories, and even entire walls. While inarguably niche, you’ve been all in on the idea, too—numerous inquiring minds left comments on last week’s sun hat roundup begging for a source on DJ Mia Moretti’s woven fish wall art.
Spoiler alert: It’s handmade. But, we managed to locate a similar aquatic cutie while also uncovering more of the best fish decor to fill your home with summer-on-the-Cape vibes all year long. From the bag style that caused a ruckus to a sardine-patterned serving platter to a set of scales-and-fins–adorned matchboxes, these prove that, sometimes, a little fishy can be a good thing.
You probably didn’t know you needed a woven fish bag until you laid eyes on this Mexican-made Etsy find, crafted in a similar style to Moretti’s. Sure, you could wear it, but wouldn’t it look even better strung up next to more art?

Not only a cheeky serving piece, this cast-iron fish pan goes from grill to table. Hang it on a pegboard via the hole that approximates an eye or even use it as a catchall for garlic.
White porcelain plates are cool and all, but nothing competes with Bordallo Pinheiro’s hand-painted fish one that’s “inspired by Portuguese culture and rustic dining traditions.” Setting an entire table with these would be pricey, so why not hang one on the wall?
