Goshiki literally means “five colors”, referring to the red, black and
white of the Sanke
and the navy and blue of the Asagi
from which the original Goshiki were developed. Lately, the name Goshiki
is given to any koi that has a white base overlaid with a grey Asagi-like
net pattern which in turn is overlaid with a Kohaku-like
pattern. Goshiki Sanke are koi that have the black marking of the Sanke
in addition to their Goshiki coloring.
