Garden ornament in the shape of frogs - sculptuur Graniet - Japan
Cute, heavy and large granite garden ornament in the shape of a frog 蛙 (kaeru) with a baby on its back.
The granite is in shades of white, grey and black.
Dimensions:
Height 22 cm, Width 30 cm, Depth 23 cm.
Weight 19.4 kg.
The age of such a stone item is difficult to determine. We think that this one is 40-60 years old (Shôwa period). It has an appealing soft outdoorsy patina. It is in a very good original condition. Please look at the photos for a condition reference.
The frog (kaeru) is a symbol of fertility and good fortune in Japan, and because the phrase in Japanese means "to return," frogs can be associated with things/people returning to their place of origin. They are lucky to have around because frogs promise good fortune and companions (which will eventually return) and are carried by travellers to ensure they return safely from their journeys.
