Description
This gorgeous Money Frog with Child is made of brass and has been treated to look beautifully aged and antiquated. Ideal for Feng Shui enthusiasts who love to collect ornaments that look antique, but are not actually one as actual antique could have gathered energy from previous owners that may have gone stale and negative. This auspicious figurine is prized as a magnet for the luck of prosperity, good fortune and family/descendant.
The Money Frog, also recognized by name the “Three Legged Toad”, is the celestial and mythical creature, emerging every full moon to bring with it wealth and good fortune. It is one of the most popular icons of prosperity and monetary gain in Feng Shui, and can be found in any Feng Shui store.
In ancient Chinese folklore, the Money Frog was the wife of renowned man who attained the Elixir of Mortality from Hsi Wang Mu, the Goddess of the West. The frog, who at that time was still a maiden, was jealous and so stole the elixir from her husband. As retribution by the other gods, she was transformed into a three-legged frog and sentenced to reside on the moon. Because of this, the Money Frog is always seen sitting on a bed of treasure, carrying two strings of coins and biting one in the mouth – her natural greed requires that she always be surrounded by riches. This is why she is such a strong symbol of prosperity that is used extensively to attract wealth luck.
