Each piece has been soldered together. I brightened him up (color wise) before distressing and then sealing him so that he's suitable for indoor OR outdoor use (if you use him outdoors you'll want to probably fashion some sort of support to keep him from blowing over if he's going to be an area with gusts).
He has those open "scales" on his body that some people have used to thread clear fishing line through and then tie him off to a stake or something in the ground. There's a lot of different ways you could do it with a little imagination. I've even seen people incorporate these into their pond & fountain decor! The fish you SEE is the EXACT one you will RECEIVE. Measures 22 inches LONG, 14 inches tall & 3 1/2 inches wide.
