Fantasy Mythical and Magic - Mermaids

A mermaid is a legendary aquatic creature with the head and torso of a human female and the tail of a fish. Mermaids are one of the most famous creatures of popular culture, and are depicted regularly in literature and film. Advertising characters from television commercials include the Chicken of the Sea Mermaid, the cartoon mascot for a brand of tuna. Even more interesting is the mermaid featured on the Starbucks Coffee logo.

Figurines both large and small are the most popular items in the eBay category. Also popular are knives with mermaid handles, plates, pottery, prints, posters and outdoor statues.
