The fortune frog, or money frog, is a mythical three-legged amphibian typically depicted with a variety of either gold coins or Chinese cash around it: one grasped in its mouth, a pile of them under its feet, and a string of them placed somewhere around the beast. Meant to symbolize how this creature provides its owner good fortune in attracting wealth and protection from misfortune, these currently are mainly seen in statue form due to their prominent role in feng shui. Of course, you don't have to believe in feng shui to appreciate
Jason Freeny's gorgeous interpretation of the beast, produced by
Mighty Jaxx as part of the deluxe "
XXRAY Plus" line. Cast in vinyl and painted with a bluish-green patina like an ancient metal sculpture would have, these 5½-inch tall quarter-cut dissected beasts will be available on November 4th, 2017 at 7am Pacific time from the
Mighty Jaxx online shop, with $10 from every purchase being donated appropriately to
Pledge It Forward.
