Description
This charming metal frog sculpture features a whimsical lounging pose, relaxing with its hands behind its head and long legs crossed. It is finished in a vibrant gradient of lime green and yellow with a high-gloss sheen. Its feet feature flattened toe pads for stability. Perfect for bookshelf decor, patio accents, or garden beds.
Key Features
Whimsical 'cottagecore' or 'maximalist' style; eye-catching vibrant color; popular frog motif which has a dedicated collector base.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence this is a mass-produced decorative item. Lack of maker's marks or artist signature confirms it is not a bespoke sculpture.
Flaws to Note
Paint loss and chipping on the main body; light rust spots where paint has failed; one foot appears slightly bent (could be intentional for the pose).

Selling Tips
