This hand-carved wooden figure, shaped through the traditional Ukir technique, depicts an anthropomorphic frog standing in a playful, upright posture atop a rounded purple base adorned with golden spirals. The figure is dressed in a whimsical, kimono-style garment featuring a vibrant array of hand-painted pastel florals and geometric diamond patterns in lemon yellow and dusty rose. Its large, expressive red eyes and a wide, friendly grin lend a spirited character to the piece, which reflects a celebrated 1980s Balinese export aesthetic. Captured in a moment of charm, the sculpture holds a textured, cone-like object, blending smooth anatomical carving with a rhythmic, high-contrast surface treatment that highlights the enduring wit and creativity of local woodcraft.
