• The Stone's Appearance: Afghan Jade is highly prized for its vibrant spectrum of greens, ranging from light, creamy jade green to deep, rich forest green.

• Artisan Detail: This hand-carved Afghan Jade frog carving is distinguished by the artisan's skill in capturing the subject's natural curves. The lily pad forms the base, carved with a rounded, organic shape and smooth edges, while the frog is presented with alert eyes and a squat, patient posture.

• Symbolism: In traditional art and Feng Shui, the frog is a powerful symbol linked to good luck, fortune, and prosperity. Due to its association with the flooding of the Nile in ancient times, this hand-carved Afghan Jade frog carving also symbolizes birth, rebirth, and fertility.
