Notice how the Shiro takes on a slight peachy color, rather than stark white? I have seen this effect on other GR Kohaku that have fine Shiro. There is something about the refraction of light on GR at certain angles that causes this effect over the Shiro as well as the Hi...a Kin Rin you might say. In other lighting/angle, the effect is different and the Shiro is the soft creamy white of good Kohaku. I think this is a very nice specimen with a classic pattern. Could well win Gin Rin A in a lot of U.S. shows... IMHO.
