伊佐養鯉場とは
Company
人の記憶にいつまでも残る 錦鯉を作りたい
We want to create KOI that will remain in people’s memories forever.
水面に美しいラインを描きながら、優雅にゆったりと泳ぐ錦鯉。
“風格“さえ感じさせるその姿に、養鯉場を始めて50年余り
私共自身がなによりも魅せられて参りました。
錦鯉発祥の地、新潟県小千谷市の山の池で育つ｢生きる芸術品」は
自然と人とのかかわりから生み出されます。
それゆえの命の儚さ、うつろいにこそ錦鯉の醍醐味があり豊かさがあると感じています。
先人の智慧に敬意を表し、血統を大切にしながらも
革新的な高みを目指して
決して満足することのない究極点へ…。
KOI swim gracefully and slowly, drawing beautiful lines on the surface of the water.
For more than 50 years since we started our Koi farm, we have been more than fascinated by the “dignified” appearance of KOI.
The “living works of art” raised in mountain ponds in Ojiya City, Niigata Prefecture, the birthplace of KOI, are the result of the relationship between nature and people. I feel that the transience and trnsition of life is the real appeal and richness of KOI.
We respect the wisdom of our predecessors and aim for innovative heights while cherishing our lineage.
We will never be satisfied with the ultimate point….
一瞬の出会いで
人の心を動かす
時が流れても
胸に刻まれる記憶を残す
A momentary encounter that moves people’s hearts.
Leaving behind memories that will remain etched in their hearts even as time passes.
そんな究極点の錦鯉を生みだすために、
自然に寄り添い、命と向き合いながら
世界に誇る日本の文化“KOI“の魅力を発信し続けて参ります。
To produce such ultimate point of Nishikigoi, We will continue to promote the charm of “KOI”, the world-class Japanese culture, while being close to nature and dealing with life. We will continue to transmit the charm of Japanese culture, “KOI”, which we are proud of to the world.

伝統を革新に
人の営みと自然との融合を目指す。
伝統的な血統や飼育方法を守るだけでなく、品種の改良など特に大型の姿の美しさを追求するために他の追随を許さない研鑽を積んでいます。人の手と小千谷の豊かな自然が融合した時、山の雪解け水の池にのびのびと泳ぐ錦鯉の姿は｢泳ぐ宝石」の呼び名に相応しい優雅さで私達の努力に報いてくれるのです。
Not only do we maintain traditional bloodlines and breeding methods, but we also make unparalleled efforts to improve our breeds and pursue the beauty of large-sized KOI in particular. When human hands and the rich nature of Ojiya are combined, KOI swimming freely in ponds filled with melted snow from the mountains reward our efforts with a graceful appearance worthy of the name “swimming jewels.
