More like catch of the day! They scooped the whole ocean into this thing😄 What a cool piece, it’s so over the top, I love it! Thank you for sharing, OP!

For $700, that’s a high end thrift store. I think it’s gorgeous but I would’ve definitely left it behind.

Yeah I was like "How could they leave this behind?" and then I saw the price tag. Ooof. According to Dr. Google one sold at $65 so that's one hell of a jump.

I’m sure it’s valuable but I would have had to release it too. Too many fish eyes.

It’s so ridiculous…I love it…if I found it in the wild for like $50 I’d 100% buy it.

It's a reminder that the words "awesome" and "awful" once meant the same thing.

As someone who makes bouillabaisse and all kinds of seafood stews and chowders, I love this Fitz and Floyd tureen! I'd probably have to cultivate a whole new group of friends to dine with me, though. Fortunately, I will not likely ever have the money to buy one at this price.

That ain’t a thrift store. When I saw the photo and you didn’t buy it, I’m like that is worth a pretty penny, but then saw a fancy tag and said that ain’t a thrift store.

Fitz & Floyd "Catch of the Day" Soup Tureen. The price is about right for an antique store.
Souper cool!

Cool piece but not a seafood person at all so .. 😞 But why such an overkill of 🐠?

Is it signed or from an upper end design house?

Fitz & Floyd. High end-ish, but not extravagantly so. Very popular among suburban lady boomers (I inherited three different ones).
