Frog on a Leaf Figurine

Believed to bring good luck to the home and regarded as a positive totem, the frog has been esteemed throughout history in cultures around the world. This Frog on the Leaf Figurine from Yaroslavl Majolica is handcrafted from ceramics with a glaze finish that highlights the frog's enchanting form and features. The art of ceramic glazing was born somewhere around the Mediterranean, but this style of painting on a white opaque glaze became associated with the wares that the potters of the island of Majorca exported all over the world. In the 18th century, the craft came to the Russian town of Yaroslavl, where the clay is still of the highest quality and the artists - true masters of their craft. Finessed & delicate, these beautiful home accent pieces are truly one-of-a-kind gifts!
