Collection notes
The ice trays at first market.
The rows seem uniform until one fish tilts and reflects a band of green. A fine pink edge at the gill warms the whole tray. Crushed ice breaks the silver into smaller points of light.
Pair Market Flank and Pilchard Spine on a fishmonger’s sign, with a short Gill Rose line beneath the catch of the day.
